Emily saves the day

Today daddy took Emily to preschool, well after mommy had left, and only fifteen minutes late. We were doing so good right up until we got to the car. NO KEYS. Okay, sort of, don't panic. Hide a key gets me through the gate, but than, did I lock all the back doors today? We just repalaced the french doors that were hanging by a thread and never locked, with new doors that locked. Okay get Emily out of the street and into the back yard. All doors locked. SHIT! Call Mommy. No answer. Okay doggie door? Nope also locked, gardener day. Okay what next? I have no idea. Then I notice the window to the laundry just a little ajar. Okay pry the painted on screen off the window frame. As I try and open the window it sticks. We have yet to replace the old wood, never work right windows. Now it's open about a foot. What now.

A little voice from behind me says: " I can do it, daddy. I can get through there."

And she did. I picked her up popped her through the window and she ran to the back and opened the door.

Emily saved the day. At the very least she saved the morning.

Now we have to try this on the neighbors house.

Where's Emily?

Emily got lost at Pre-School. Not really lost she was hiding. Losing a kid is the scariest thing no question. But lucky enough Jen she was not working that day. Although Jen could have found her. Emily is a great hider and yesterday she decided to hide at school. The parents were freaking out for twenty minutes trying to find her. She said she just needed some alone time. When Jen got to school to pick her up the other moms where ashen faced. At home we have a rule that when we are looking for her she has to yell out where she is. Emily is a real good hider.
