  • What does it take for a young girl to learn to swim? What does it take the same girl to learn to deep dive? What about deep diving next to a massive whale in the middle of the ocean? In this 1000 Words speech, Garrett Gee from The Bucket List Family shares his story of teaching his daughter Dorothy to swim which led to a life-changing moment for he and his daughter in Tonga.

    Dorothy is one in a million the way she helps her two younger brothers how to swim how to be brave while the whole time she is watching them to make sure they are safe and happy. She is always there for them. And I believe that nothing will ever stop Dorothy doing what she needs to do to achieve what it is she wants to do. You are amazing parents as you give all your three wonderful Children the belief that they can do whatever it is they want to do. I would love to meet your family.

    Dorothy Gee is an inspirational person!! She’s had me in tears with the bravery I’ve seen. I’ve seen her push past things that adults would have said no to!! Thank you for being a wonderful father who has picked a wonderful mate and raising your children strong, loving, compassionate people who are a joy to watch grow!! Thanks for sharing your lives!!

    The things this little girl can do is amazing. Seeing her put a carrot in her mouth and let a giraffe take it from her. Her bravery has no boundaries.

    I came across the bucket list family about a year ago it was on my recommended and the first video I watched was one where Dorothy and Garrett went diving in the ocean and it had me crying of happiness in seconds. Since then I have watched most of they're videos and I watch their new bids every Sunday❤️

    I love The Bucket List Family and Dorothy is an inspiration. Both her bravery and her amazing loving, openhearted attitude. Both to her younger brothers as to so many other kids you've met during their travels.
    Those baby swimming lessons sound weird. Here in The Netherlands the majority of children learn to swim at a young age, because there's water everywhere here. Baby swimming is quite common too, but to my knowledge, that's always parent and child together. Slowly introducing them to the water step-by-step.

    I admire the bravery possessed by the bucket list family and gambling the future without any doubt and what is in is a big Trust to "GOD" everything
    anyway first following your story I was curious about the name Manilla because I think so you are the only person who named your son followed to a country name and I found out you are half filipino which made me proud my children were also half Filipino Kuwaitie...

    Guys I said on your channel but when you guys swam with the whales, I’m an animal communicator and body language expert and I can tell you what the whale mom was thinking when she seen you guys the mother whale almost stopped in her tracks..the first day the whales just went about there business but the day you dropped into the water with little D the mom whale had respect for you guys ..the only humans to trust the whale with you’re calf and they took notice..in a big way...
