Pip vanished yesterday–I prepared a tea party for her and Tabi and when the tea was ready, I called Pip and asked Tabs to go and get her (I’d left her watching Lion King). Tabs appeared saying she could not find Pip–unusual as Pip is the kind of a girl who would never miss a tea party and a chance for snacks. I searched the entire upper floor–closets, under beds, everywhere. No Pip. I ran down stairs and searched the entire lower foor. Nothing. I got Tabs, Mist and Mist’s friend Maddi to keep searching the entire house as I searched our yard. NO sign of Pip. My voice was hoarse from yeling her name. At this point I realized she was either: trapped somehwere in the house and couldn’t call out, or had wondered out the front door and was somewhere in the neighborhood. I needed a bigger search team and fast. I called 911 “I can’t find my baby!” I yelled. As I was on the phone with them, something possesed me to go into my bedroom yet again. I ripped back my douvet, in despiration, and there she was, flat as a pancake lying with her eyes closed and a smile on her little face. I told the dispatcher, “I found her! She’s hiding on me!”. What a Shock. She was completely flat and undetectable under my douvet. And she just turned 2! How does a child that age deliberatley hide, still and silent after 15 min of the entire house searching for her and calling for her??? My adrenelin high crashed and I needed an early night last night, let me tell you.
So, today sunshine and spring dresses.Bear nearly complete–So into my portraits. My focus is clear and strong: “In your face” portraits of humans and other animals–close and a little unusual.
Sliver still in my thumb since weekend. Not pretty. Mist decided to quit the rock band. She wasn’t into electric guitar.Tabs soccer tonight, then a sleep over party at our house on Friday–to make up for her birthday sleepover that was cancelled due to her 41 oC temp.
Buttoning down the hatches in prep for a day with the Pip. Will take her to Mission park, Chapters and then the healthfood store this am–excitement awaits! Peter insanely busy with conference he’s hosting for the next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
