Unless you have a child it is hard to understand but the moment they put that slimy beautiful baby on your chest your heart comes out of your body and walks around in your child.
Today we went to the Festival in Downtown Grand Rapids. We were having a great old time and then all of the sudden I said "Where's Cole" followed by panic terror swearing on my part. WE looked for what seemed eternity but was 5 mins and then I found him just walking around looking at stuff. He did not seem to even notice he was lost. He said he knew where I was. First I cried then I hugged him. Then I got mad. Mad because I told him at least 10 times to stay right next to me. I told him I had never been so scared. My heart was breaking. He cried and assured me it would not happen again. I pray to God it does not.
After that we got our faces painted.

You literally feel the panic creeping up your throat as your stomach gets more and more nauseous!!
So so so very terrifying! I'm so glad all ended well :)
I've always described having kids as having my heart ripped out of my chest and placed out in the world to be vulnerable and trampled! It sounds so gory but it is so true! Glad you had a happy ending to your story, though, and were able to continue your day and enjoy it!
