Hedge of thorns

When I was two or three My parents wanted to teach me how to swim.So one day in the summer they took me to the shallow end which was four feet and I was like three feet. My mom pushed me in and I was so confused and mad that my mom would do such a thing so I ran to my dad he was cheering me on.(the reason I went to my dad was because he is the loving and passionate and he is always understanding.) I got out of the pool as fast as I could. When I got to him he picked me up and put me back in. Now I was more angry and confused. I did the same thing about three times until they spanked and it was done. I did not know this would help later in my life.



I was seven when me sister Emery almost drowned me. Me and my sister love to go to the 24 hour fitness to swim so we went there one day Emery was about three. She loved to be a big girl that was OK with me until she got all of the attention then I stepped in to show I was older. so she asked to go on my back into the four feet deep water.(I had to stand on my toes to be above the top.)(I also did not learn how to swim over the years because I was scared I would drown.) Emery was enjoying it I was glad to make her so happy.Emery saw someone under water and started to push on my shoulders which made me go under. My mom was talking with my dad so she could not her me trying to call her name. Finally I got Emery off my back and I have never let her on my back again. After that I took swimming lessons and love the water more than ever.

Moral: Take the lesson now than struggling and suffering.
