Holding It


See Bekah? She doesn’t look like a freak.

Bekah

I wish I could open my eyes underwater and hold my breath in a pretty manner.

Not drowning.

But it’s not happening any time soon.

  2. I’m like you are too; but we’re probably in the minority. We’ve got a waterproof/submersible phone. You should see all the kids try to talk on the telephone under water.

    Happy HNT!

    A waterproof phone? How very cool! I can imagine that that would be something fun for the kids to play with.

  3. The bubbles coming out of my nose freak me out.

    And I love that picture of you, it’s hilarious.

    The bubble coming out are the things that make me believe that you really are underwater!

    You can really tell that I’m fighting for my life there.

    What a nice compliment! And we wouldn’t drown you like those pesky Sirens.

  5. I can open my eyes underwater, but keep them scrinched tightly shut when in the ocean. I don’t want to see that great white shark coming at me…

    Ooooo…I just stay outta the ocean. I won’t go into the shark’s living room and he won’t wander into mine!

  6. While Bekah looks beautiful she also reminds me of a mermaid.

    And YOU my dear remind me of how much fun you always have no matter what you are doing! Who cares if you can’t open your eyes.

    Have a wonderful time with your neice and a great 25 days off from work.

    We are all having a large time on vacation. The niece & I have been hitting the pool w/our goggles on so no need to worry over the eye-opening :)

  7. I use to be able to do it..A L-O-N-G time ago, just like Easther Williams in all those MGM movies…She would be underwater and she would smile–YES—with her teth showing and her eyes wide open….It was fabulous. I could always open my eyes underwater, but the Smiling took a bit of work…lol!
    Still, my dear, you look like you both are having fun!

    Smiling? There’s no way I could do that. I would surely drown just trying!
