While Cole was gone, we did anything and everything to pass the time. We were able to go to a pool near our home one day. It wasn't the most successful swimming trip of my life, and let's just say I won't be taking my kids swimming by myself for a VERY LONG TIME. At least they were wearing life jackets (1 point for mom). Brett, being the quick little devil he is, took off in a matter of seconds to the big slide he had been eying the whole time we were there. Me being the calm and rational mother I am..... FLIPPED out because I couldn't find him. I know it was just a matter of a couple of minutes, before I spotted him...but it felt like HOURS. I was just sure I was going to have to tell Cole I lost our son. When I found him, he had been trying to convince the life guard he was big enough to go down the "big slide." I got a few grays hairs during this episode and lost a few years on my life. I suppose it all ended ok, but I'm now even more paranoid than I was before (GREAT!!!)
