Had our first experience, as relativelly new parents of a 19 month old, with our boy wandering off during our slo-pitch game in nisku tonight. If any of you were there tonight I wish i had the chance to shake everyones hand that dropped what they were doing to help out two very scared parents.
Little bugger decided to follow dad a few hundred yards to the parking lot when i went to grab the carseat from my wifes car. I found him during the panicked search walking through a couple cars looking for me. Worst 5 minutes of my life hands down. Its amazing how the "Dad" instincts instantly kick in. Never....have the horrible thoughts of what I was going to do to the "person that took my son" rushed through my mind with the sincerity that that they were tonight.
Nonetheless, twas a happy ending. Lesson learned by rookie mom and dad.
Again, a heartfelt thank you to everyone in the nisku ball league.
