The best way to celebrate spring break is by being a hero.
A teenager visiting Orlando, Fla., rescued a toddler from drowning at a hotel pool. According to reports, the young woman pulled the child out of the water just in time.
Kaydence Henslee, a 13-year-old from Mayhill, N.M., was spending time at the pool when she noticed a toddler floating face down in the deep end, Fox 46 reports. She told news outlets that while the sight scared her, she intuitively dove into the water and pulled the child out. The little girl's lip had reportedly turned purple by the time she was rescued.

The child was eventually identified as a three-year-old from Missouri. Mom Ashley Williams said she had just stepped away from the pool for a few minutes.
"I just remember seeing another woman run across and yell into the bar area for someone to call 911 because a baby had just drowned," Williams said. "I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ I didn’t think it was my baby."
