The Long Morning

The day started off much like all the others, the kids waking up earlier than Jason and I want to be and us squeaking out the last few minutes of sleep. This morning Jason was off to work and Isaac wanted to stand on the step and wave goodbye. Me, being the energy efficient mom that I am pulled the door closed only to find that once Jason was down the road the door was locked. Last time this happened (yes there was a last time) Jason was taking the trash out before actually leaving so I ran to the back alley to catch him. This time we weren't' so lucky. So wearing only my hot pink robe and some socks I ran across the street in search of someone at home so I could call Jason and have him come back. This whole time I made Isaac (who was in his PJ's and socks) sit on the step of the entry way. After one no answer across the street, the second door was the winner. The guy let me in to use his phone and after I dialed I went back outside to see a bus coming around the corning and Isaac not where I had left him. I ran in all my hot pink glory across the street to find Isaac standing on the sidewalk crying. When I picked him up he informed me that he was "scaring the bus momma." My child's life flashed before my eyes! Jason returned home to inform me that he had in fact hid a key after our last incident....only forgetting to tell me!! The whole time Kadyn was strapped in her high chair loving life! The kicker, at about 10 I went to let Annie out the back door to find that when Jason had gone to switch laundry earlier that morning he had left the door unlocked...that's right, the back door was unlocked the entire time!!!
