So I really do have a lot of catching up to do but if I don't write this one up I may forget when I look at pictures on the camera, because they will be just the suburban sitting in the driveway.
So we were on the way home from school when the twins asked if we could go to Grandmas house. I said, "let's go home and have lunch and then we can go up." We get home and make grilled cheese sandwiches and Isaac wasn't eating as fast as the boys so they went outside to wait. I didn't know they had taken the keys with them.
I get Isaac's lunch boxed up with a sippy cup as well as his clothes for the day, yes I get him dressed after his morning nap. With everything in my hands, I walk out the door and that is where the DUH moments starts. As I walked out the door, all I could do is stop and stare down the driveway as my suburban slowly made its way down to the street. The driveway slopes a little at first and gets steeper as it goes down. After the moment of shock wore off, I was able to put my things down, run to the car, open the door, shove the kid out of the seat, and make the flying leap in so that I could stop the runaway car. Now the miracle of this moment is, that the car doors lock as soon as the car is past reverse. So it was no small miracle that the door was unlocked so that I could get in and stop the car.
My legs have been nothing short of shaking for the rest of the day. Hopefully I scared the little boy(William) enough that he won't ever think of doing that again, at least until he is 16.
