Just so you know, if you are trying to call me it won't work. My phone is broken and I can not get it to turn on. I will attempt to remedy that tonight - if it is free. If it costs me money , I'm sorry, it's not gonna happen. Not until after x-mas at least :). anyhow, my children are crying, I am grumpy, and there are things that need to be taken care of.
Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.
