Haha. I lost my little M once for a whole 15 minutes...soooo scary.
Mind you when she was about 2 I walked her up to school to pick Rachel up who was about 5. Rachel came running out with a leter and it was telling us that the school caretaker had died suddenly...I wandered away from the liitle courtyard where I collected rachel from...reading the letter in one hane and Holding Rachel's hand... half way across the playground I felt as though I was missing something.....
A few more paces and I realised I had simply forgotten Martha and had left her playing in the courtyard...
I got lost in the mall when I was young and they treated me so well. Nowadays I bet they would try to scare you to try to make you realize you have to stay by your parents. If E is out of sight for ten seconds my heart stops- it is a HORRIBLE feeling. Of course I blame the media, but there are sooo many sickos out there!
