Posted — UpdatedThe Casella family says their second youngest daughter was playing in the shallow end of a pool when she sank to the bottom without a splash.
Fortunately for Lila, a 22-month-old, her sister was playing with Barbie dolls nearby and quickly sprang into action.
“Five of us were staring at the pool the entire time but nobody saw anything happen,” said Sarah Casella, Lila’s mother.
According to Sarah, Lila sank to the bottom of the shallow end because she wasn’t wearing her puddle jumper life jacket.
Six-year-old Mia, the oldest of four children, was the only person who saw her sister sink down three feet of water.
