Lost in Walmart, ahhhhhh!!


So all you that know me know that I always have a lot of Mykell stories. The girl is CRAZY fun, and well sometimes just plain CRAZY!! Today we were in Walmart (I know the story is bad enough just knowing it is Walmart). Anyways, I was picking out some window cleaner turned around and Mykell was gone. I looked for about 5 minuets and couldn't find her anywhere. I was about in tears when I went up to a women employee. I told her my daughter ran away and that I couldn't find her. She asked for a description. I told her she had long light brown hair, white shirt, and blue pants. She repeated it back to me and said "Okay so blond hair, brown pants and a black shirt" WHAT???? We did this about three times, all the while I was running horrible lost child possibilities through my head. She finally goes up to another employee and says we need to page for a lost child. She has blond hair, brown pants and a white shirt (at least she got the shirt part right!). We were on our way to page, and Mykell comes running up to me and said "I found you Mom, I was playing hide and seek." I have never been so excited to see her in her life. I had been so nervous. I asked her where she was and she said she was hiding behind the toilet paper in boxes, and running up and down by the dresses. I told her I was so scared and was looking for her. I asked her if she saw me looking for her and she said she did, but she was hiding. AHHHHHHHH!! Needless to say we have had a very very long discussion about NOT playing hide and seek in stores. I know that most people have lost kids in stores, but it is really scary. I'm just glad that everything is okay. Now I have yet another Mykell story!!

Oh, my goodness!! I'm so glad that she is alright! She is such a little spitfire. :) I loved when she told us that eating frosting makes her teeth strong. She has the cutest personality! I hope she doesn't try to play hide and seek in the store again!!

What a scary day! I almost cried just reading it. How frustrating that they couldn't get her description right. I am so glad she came back out of the TP! :)
