Although the weather has cooled down a bit, it is still swimming weather (85 degrees). So when we were done with the park we headed over to Zoe's for a cool dip in the pool. Everyone was there except for Erin and her family. While at the park, Janet had the ultimate scare of a lifetime. We were getting ready to leave the park when baby Patrick disappeared. Janet always watches him like a hawk but the second she took her eyes off of him he was gone. Shelley and her group of kids had left before we realized that Patrick was missing. Janet and I searched the whole area. He was nowhere to be found. Janet was just beside herself. Both she and I yelled and yelled. Finally I saw him on the driver side of their van in the street and another car was heading toward him. I screamed "STOP!!!". Meanwhile a young boy of about 12 ran out to the street and swooped up Patrick in his arms. Janet came running over and grabbed her baby. This whole incident was probably about 10 minutes long but it sure did seem like a lifetime and if you believe in guardian angels, someone was definitely looking over that beautiful baby yesterday afternoon.
