It's good that we do because we can cue into when there is a real problem and help. It's bad that we do because we make ourselves nuts worrying over them. All in all, it's more of a good thing. Thank you for worrying about these boys. They're fine or you'd know by now. You can let it go.

I suspect maybe the parents were ahead of the kids somewhere, on a path that joined it, and the dog could sniff the scent trail. I think there would have been some kind of a news story if they hadn't been OK. <br />Still, though, I would have been concerned too.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7509978691038206460.post-90715797850043654922013-10-04T16:43:48.650-06:002013-10-04T16:43:48.650-06:00Oh my goodness- that is so worrisome to know young...Oh my goodness- that is so worrisome to know young children are out on a trail by themselves..

We were waiting in line at the drugstore today when a 2 year old ran off from his mother who was talking to the pharmacist. She didn't even look around. We kept watching him and an older gentleman tried to call him back , but he was off on an adventure. Finally I just followed him up and down the aisles and I swear it was a good 10 minutes before she even came looking. That is just not right!

As humans we go through a range of emotions, however if we can come out to the side of sharing calm and loving energy - then we are helping those in need. I felt your heart quicken, body tensing, sigh of relief and then on to the stress of maternal concern. Wonderful post and comments. Keep holding them in the light. It's difficult to be sure, but the positive thoughts ripple out. Thanks for sharing. I too will visualize them on many more safe adventures with their companion/dog meeting you once again as young adults.
