We were walking home from the park and stopped at the mini Tesco. Dd is 2 yrs old. I looked at her (3 feet away fiddling with some packets), looked at the bread, looked back - and she was gone. I ran up the aisle and looked - no dd. Looked down all the aisles - then someone said she had run out the door. She must have gone down the next aisle and out as I was looking for her.
I ran outside and looked around, calling for her. No dd. I was starting to get that strange fuzzy tingling feeling - I didn't know which way to go next. People asked me what the matter was. An oldish man came up the lane by the shop and asked if I was looking for my little-un. And there she was, down the lane, by an enormous lorry, looking a bit sheepish.
It just happened SO FAST I could not believe it. How can I ever take her walking again? She won't hold my hand. I do have reigns but rarely use them. Next time I'll have heart failure and she'll get run over or kidnapped...... Jill (is it too early for brandy..??)
