KitKat dove in her first meet this weekend, and amazingly, I caught this photo of one of her practice dives. I was so incredibly proud.
Even more amazing is the fact that a few seconds before KitKat was ready to dive in the meet, my phone fell from my lap and took a 10 foot dive off the balcony where I was sitting onto the tile pool deck below.
The members of KitKat’s swim team gingerly handed me the pieces of my phone. A piece of case here. A battery there. Horrified, I checked the screen. It looked fine. One small dent on the corner of the phone as all I could find. I put the phone back together and turned it on. Perfect.
This phone (the T-Mobile MyTouch 4G by LG in case you were wondering) has nine lives. You’d never know it fell off a balcony onto a tile floor. Phew!

Thanks for the linky. Found on Blogger Connection Support. I understand the phone troubles. I have dropped mine many a times. But, you were lucky enough to get an awesome photo!

What a wonderful shot! I’m a fellow swim parent too! Aren’t the meets (long) fun? How long has she been swimming/diving? (Glad your phone is OK!

Is this really her 1st year diving? Her form is great!!
I was on the diving team for 13 years (started at 5 and dove until I was too old) and loved it… so very excited for her… and for your un-broken phone!!
