A Reason of a Rule

One day me (Jared), my older sister Kayli, my little brother Nicholas, and my little sister Bethany were swimming and Kayli, me and Nicholas were playing marco polo. Bethany wasn't a very good swimmer, but good for a three year old. And while we were playing Marco Polo, we heard Bethany yell something, but we weren't paying attention then there was a splash, but we didn't hear it, so, we kept playing.

Later, Kayli was it for Marco Polo, and I swam to the deep end by the diving board, and saw Bethany floating face down in the water and thuoght it was a joke, so I said: "come on Bethany" (or something like that) but she didn't get out of the water, so, I got scared and called Kayli. She thought it was a joke too, then I pulled her out of the water and saw that her lips were blue. Next it was Nicholas I called, and told him to get mom and so he ran into the house, up the stairs and called mom and told her about Bethany, and she came running down the stairs, through the back door and into the pool area.When my mom saw Bethany, I had already pulled her out of the water.
Gladly my mom knew C.P.R., so she went on to work and told Kayli to call 911. We prayed for her to be well.
When the ambulance arrived, and we got Bethany into the house, my bishop was here and some others in the ward. Some of our friends in the ward took us to their house.
Two days later we got to visit Bethany. She had a full recovery. We brought her home and gave her a load of gifts.

I'm so glad Heavenly Father answered our prayers.
