OH YEAH GO ME I SAVED A LIFE!

January 23, 2008

Hey, as you read, I saved a life. I was at the mountains sleding and a four year old girl and her sled went over a water pit (the place was by a lake). Apparently her mom gave her sled a tiny shove and she just got more and more speed. My brother tried to stop her but he wasn't fast enough, and the girl went over the edge into one and a half foot deep water and at the bottom was about 6 inches of sticky mud. It was a five foot drop into the water, and the mom jumped in to get her kid. She got the kid out but her boots were stuck in the mud and her husband couldn't get her out himself so I gave her my hand and pulled her out with her husband's help. They went back to their car to dry off and warm up. The lady's glove was in the water pit and two girls, maybe about seven years old, were trying to get it. They told me that they wouldn't stop until they got the glove so I said that I'd get it because if I fell in, I'd have a better chance of getting out than they would so I got the glove, and I got out safely. When I found the family in the parking lot I gave the lady her glove. I felt so bad for her because she was begging her kid to forgive her and the kid's just kinda like, "Yeah..." The mom was BALLING!! But after that the trip was pretty cool. Half the time I was on a sled, I was actually in the air because there were so many jumps. One thing I did NOT have fun on though was that on a hill I'd already gone on, a group of teenage guys asked me if I wanted to go down, so I said, "Sure, uh, I guess?" So I went down and it turns out they built a jump at the very bottom and didn't want to test it themselves. So NOT fun! I was riding the sled on my stomach and I was 100% horizontal when I went over the jump. I was holding on for dear life when my gloves slipped and I let go of the sled. At the last second I reached down as far as I could, pulled the sled up to myslef and the very heartbeat after I did that I hit the ground and stuck the landing! I was extremely mad but decided to act like a good sport and laugh. Haha, drama queen, I know. =)

 With love,
