Girl Don't Do That Again!
Today the girls and I met my Mom at Toys R Us. It was Geoffery's (the giraffe) Birthday and they had games and giveaways...and other stuff....supposedly! Jadyn got a new big girl car seat, the booster type that buckles in with only the seat belt from the car. Jenna got food(formula). I also needed a new umbrella stroller since the old one got abandoned at the Milwaukee Zoo a couple weeks ago!!!
The big happening at the store today was Jadyn wandering off! Calling her name up and down the aisles we could not find her. Finally, I got a red shirted employee - and he took charge! I was very impressed. He got on his walkie talkie and within seconds, all the employees in the store were on look out! I noticed this as I frantically flew around the store calling out her name! Probably not even 1(long long) minute passed when I was flying up to the front of the store and there she is by the red shirted employee, crying her eyes out! She was so scared because she couldn't find us! I was so relieved to find her and her me!
Thanks to the quick acting young man in the red shirt who helped me out!
Because of the state of today's world, after the initial searching for her and her not responding to my calling for her, my mind starting thinking of the worse possible thing! What person would probably not even think twice to a person carrying out a kid kicking and screaming coming out of a toy store. I know I would probably chuckle to my self and think that the kid didn't get what he/she wanted in the store!
But luckily we are all safe and sound. I had to explain to her a little bit about why I was so worried. She is so young and innocent, and it just sucks that you have to tell her about all the weirdos in the world! I think she learned her lesson for at least a little while.
One funny thing about and you probably will only understand if you have ever read the Mercer Meyer(?) story Just Lost. In it the little critter gets lost at the mall and says that his mom " just wandered off" (not the kid...the mom!) - and that is exactly what she told James when she talked to him on the phone tonite! What a goof!
