She's a quick one! I have {accidentally} let her get out of my sight and found her a few houses away before, but tonight as Nate and I were frantically looking everywhere for her our neighbor calls and says Haley is at their house in the cul-de-sac south of ours. She apparently followed Kaden to his friend's house pushing her little doll stroller. The thing is he was on his scooter and left her in his dust. All the while oblivious that she was even following him, but she still knew where to go! I think she was in heaven.... she found a little girl about her age and I was told they were hugging and all the kids were oohing and awing and that's when the mom realized there was another baby there and I wouldn't just let my (almost) 22 month old roam the neighborhood! To top it off-- while Nate was out searching the neighborhood for her on his long board he totally ate it! {I didn't get to see the crash and burn.... dang it! Not that I'm glad he got hurt, but it would've been funny to watch!} He had to go into the house while I walked to the neighbor's to get Haley. She was happy as could be and teased me the whole way home threatening to turn and bolt from me at any moment. I checked on poor Nate when we got home. He has some road rash and his shoulder hurts pretty bad (not to mention his pride). His shoulder looks a little "wrong", but we'll see how it his tomorrow. As for Haley.... I could use a GPS tracker!

The Runaway
She's a quick one!

I have always thought that children need a chip put in them at birth so that we can find them when we need to. I am glad you found her safe and sound. I feel bad for Nate. I hate it when my "Pride" get hurt, that is the worst.
Totally know how you feel, how much are those little kid trackers anyway?
I. Feel. Your. Fear. There is nothing scarier than loosing a kid! I'm glad she's fine and that she unvoluntarily found a playdate--good that she stayed close!
How are you these days, woman?
