I had been trying to get Leyla to dip her face in the water for weeks - but she would only do it a couple of times singing "ring around the rosie...we all fall down" and never on her own. So at the pool in Roatan, I was talking to some friends while she "swam" but of course I had one eye glued on her the entire time. I'm glad I did because she stepped off the step once and I had to run and grab her - she wouldn't keep her floaties on for more than about 10 minutes! Anyway, I watched her and realized that she was watching JC (the other little boy in the video) go in and out of the water and under because she all of the sudden started doing it herself! All on her own! It was so cute to watch and I am so glad I had the camera handy!
My name is Rebekah. I am married and living in Catacamas, Honduras with my husband and our baby girl Leyla, born October 29, 2009. We moved here last June and it has been a crazy year! I have had to adjust to many, many things and am still adjusting. I learn something new every day, about God, myself, motherhood, marriage, cultures - and while life is sometimes challenging, it is always rewarding! :)
