worst day ever

today i lost my daughter

we went down for a nap at 2 o'clock
her in her room
and me on the couch

at 3 o'clock i woke up in a panic
couldnt figure out where i was
why i wasnt dressed
or if i had my daughter or not
(as she is with her dad every other day)

i remembered that i had her and we were napping
i went to her room to see if she was still sleeping
she wasnt there
to my room
not there either
bathroom
nope
kitchen
nope
closets
nope
i panicked
i ran down the hallway
cjecked the laundry rooms
nope
outside
nope
balling my eyes out
i call gramma to see if maybe i was dreaming that i had her and she was still at grammas
nope
i call 911
can hardly explain myself i am squeeling so loud
they are on their way

feelins of devastation come over me
where is my baby?
how could i have not heard her leave?
how could i be so stupid?
did someone steal her?
did she get hit by a car?
is she dead?

"mommy, why are you crying"
she's right behind me
rubbing her eyes

"i thought i lost you baby"
i get out between sobs
"i was sleeping in the laundry basket under my blanket mommy"
i hug her and dont let go
i call her dad
gramma
police
to let them know she is safe in my arms
and i hold her and cry

i found my little princess
she is safe
with her mommy

Oh my God, Little Red! I have nightmares like that! Thank God it's a happy ending story.

Whew! But now a question: why do kids love the laundry basket so damn much?

my brother used to play a game when he was little, where he would hide in the house while my mum put my other brother and I on the bus.

She went back in and looked and looked and was freaking out, then she found him tucked thinly under her bedsheets. He has gone there and fallen asleep.

I can only imagine your fear, thank god your daughter was alright

that has happened with to my mother before, with my daughter, well sort of. my mom woke up and was disoriented and was freaking out because hailey wasn't in her bed (because she was asleep in my bed) and i had to calm my mother down because she wouldn't believe me that hailey was okay and asleep upstairs. she kept saying 'are you sure'. my mother is super over protective of my daughter. she says they have a 'bond' because she was there and saw when my daughter was being born.

it hasn't happened to me. thankfully. she doesn't nap anymore, but when she did i always napped with her and i'm a terribly light sleeper, nothing gets past me.

so glad that you found your pretty princess and everything was okay.

with that hairy ass you should get fixed~! imagine your kids looking like that...eeewww!

im sorry i started the post that way, but as you all know, i do have a flair for the dramatic!(not that that make swhat happened any less scary, cause i really almost had a heart attack!

btw, i called 911 back in time so they didnt come out to my house, and they didnt laugh at me when i told them what happened, they said it happens all the time(kids falling asleep in a hiding spot and scaring the shit out of the parents)

Bryce is never sticking his wart-ridden appendage in a woman again anyway, so it's probably a moot point.
