I can't imagine the fear and horror you must have felt, like it was surreal or something. Thank you so much for posting it, I think a lot of us will be extra extra careful because of this. We live in a second-floor apartment and I'm really wanting to move. If my daughter somehow got outside (she's 19 months so not quite to that point yet) it would be sooo dangerous. I'm sorry you've been sick, too. I've had a cold for two stinking weeks and it's not gone yet so I'm feeling your pain. I hope mine doesn't last a month! Oh man, I’m so sorry!

LOL :P<br/><br/>I still feel bad about what happened because the coppers are still annoying me about it. But your story did make me laugh!<br/><br/>Now about this obsession you have with Naked Ed Asner...LMAO!! Zo,

She woke up and went outside to look for me and when she saw where I was she yelled at my father to do something.<br/><br/>He ran inside to get a camera.<br/><br/>But if that doesn't make you feel a bit better to think about I'll remind you of this precious haiku:<br/><br/><i>shan's silk sheets slide off<br/>ed asner's wrinkled old buns<br/>wakka wakka time</i> Back in 66, when I was about two, my mother fell asleep and I got out the window and on to the roof. She woke up and went outside to look for me and when she saw where I was she yelled at my father to do something.

He ran inside to get a camera.

But if that doesn’t make you feel a bit better to think about I’ll remind you of this precious haiku:

shan’s silk sheets slide off
ed asner’s wrinkled old buns
wakka wakka time

I put this up for public viewing because I want to be honest in every aspect of my life. This blog is about my struggles to not lose my very last shreds of sanity (notice how I plugged my blog ON my blog! :P ) while trying to raise my daughter well. I want my readers & friends to see me, warts & all, & still "get" that I am just trying to do the best I can by the family I love so dearly. Not everyone is going to agree with me, but at least they can respect my honesty & willingness to take responsibility when I screw it all up. <br/><br/>Hopefully Rowan won't figure out the new locks & do anything like this again! If she does, I guess we will just have to tether her to the couch & put motion alarms on the doors & windows! I am sure the Sheriffs & CPS would have a field day with that one...I'd probably be deemed unfit for sure!!! Thank you both for your kind words, I needed that!

My heart goes out to you. That is such a scary situation. And of course they won't take into the fact that you have been sick either. You will be in my prayers. Everything will work out fine. Just keep your head up (but your eyes on that mischievous little Rowan). And know that you have friends here to support you that love you. Oh sweetheart! My heart goes out to you.
