Describe your most humbling parenting moment.

I was at the mall where they have a shallow pond with big fish. Kayla loved looking at them. I stepped aside to take pictures on my phone...and before I knew it, she was falling into the pond!!! I caught her as she dipped her head in the water. It was humbling and embarrassing!
