Yet, there she was. The funeral home cosmetologist laid her out as if she were sleeping. A sprig of Baby's Breath in her hand. Her other arm raised over her head as if she was about to wake up and yawn. It broke my heart. You can only imagine how viewing this beautiful little girl this way affected her parents, grandparents and brothers. Except her brothers are too young to really understand what happened.
It was a horrible accident.
Mom thought the baby girl was safe. Dad thought she was safe. Grandma was at work. Her brothers were running around the back yard. No one knows for sure when she fell into the pool.
Life took a dramatic turn in 15 minutes.
