The World Can Change in an Instant

Son #1 fell in the Erie Canal yesterday while fishing with his dad and little brother.

He kept his cool, swam to the edge, held on, grabbed my hubby's hand and was pulled out.

Everything seemed fine last night. We all played tennis and the boys spent some time rolling down the hill by the courts; but, he was pretty scared when he finally climbed into bed. He began crying and told me that he was really glad to be alive because he really wanted to stick around and "see the sights." He also discovered that he wants to live for a really long time because he "likes it here on earth."

I like it when he's here on earth, too.
