4) if your kids are shitty to each other, other kids, and/or don’t listen, you should be in the pool with them regardless of age. Alternatively you can stick to your word and pull them out when they do any of the above. (I have had to do this)

3) this seems basic but if your kid can’t swim, don’t let them out of arm’s reach in 9ft deep water. (I was closer on the pool deck and ready to jump in, clad in denim)

DO WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO.

Thank you for sharing this. I will miss her dearly and think of her often.

Knowing this was coming doesn’t make it any less difficult. Fuck.
