A MOM "FIRST"...

...for me, at least!  I am sure this has happened to MANY moms out there - humor me, PLEASE!    I don't want to think for a second that I am the only one!


I LOCKED MY KIDS IN THE CAR!  Yes, yes - I am ashamed to say so.  I was on the phone, not paying attention, and OOPS!  I honestly can't recall exactly how that happened, but I'll take the blame for it 100%.  Tyler was still buckled in, and because these carseats really are childproof, he couldn't get himself out to unlock it.  Believe me, I tried to get him to!  Mallory was next to him, cool as a cucumber (for the first 10 minutes).  

I have to give a "shout out" to USAA Roadside Assistance.  They came through with flying colors to help a sorry soul like myself.  15 minutes after the phone call and they were there.  Thank goodness I put that sticker on my windshield!  And, luckily I had the phone in my hand when I exited the car.  (Kind of ironic, isn't it?)  It was 60 degrees and shady where I was parked, so I was okay with them in the car, and they were okay.  Or, I would have dialed Marietta's finest officers to help me out.  

When we were done, we went into the store and bought envelopes and glue, and had a good laugh about it.
