One of those days!
As most of you know I am a frequent shopper at the Home Depot. Actually, it is second in line to Walmart of the stores I visit most. It is time for me to start preparing for the next craft show, so I had my flatbed full of wood. I had also bought a few large pieces and I have to have someone help me load those into my truck. So I paid for my wood, strapped Sydnie into her car seat, and pulled into the loading area. The man was there with my wood, so I hopped out of the truck to help him load. He had grabbed the wrong size, and I went to get my receipt and discovered the truck doors were locked. Sydnie must have been pushing buttons. So there I was with Sydnie smiling (luckily) back at me. The keys were in the ignition and my purse with my cell phone was sitting on the seat next to Sydnie. She is too little to hope to try and get her to push the unlock button. So I just sat there helpless. I never actually dial anyone's number anymore. So when a man in a truck next to me, offered me his cell phone, I had to decline. I didn't know anyone's number not even Shaun's (Well I do know some phone numbers of people who live in Idaho but allot of good that would have done me). So I did the only thing a girl in my situation could do, I started crying. That worked immediately, soon I had several male Home Depot employees offering to help. One called the American Fork Police department and had a Policeman sent right over. I guess Police still come out if a child is locked in the car. Anyway about 10 minutes later my truck was unlocked. Sydnie stayed happy the whole time and all was better. Next time I won't leave the keys in the ignition, and I'm working on memorizing a few phone numbers.

Man Jen, That would be really scary. Thank goodness they got there so quickly. I need to get a carseat and a doll for the next time i lock our keys in the car i guess... :) jk. Aren't cell phones horrible because you don't know anyones number...
I did that before with my kids. No fun. At least I had dad there to rescue me. It just took 20 minutes of staring at the kids before he got there. Man was it cold!

I'm sure I would have cried too. It's so funny though, well, to read about anyway. I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time. Glad everything worked out and that she stayed happy the whole time.
