    Shanley - wow!
    I'm so happy you found him, I can't even tell you
    and I can get frighteningly emotional myself, so I know what it takes to manage that

    Re: baby escaped.....

    Shanley, I think it's good that you realize what is happening with your emotions even if you can't quite control it just yet. My younger son is like you. Always has been. From the time he was an infant he would just scream with frustration. I could watch him laying on the floor trying to reach something but couldn't. Instead of working at it like most babies or losing interest in the item entirely, he would stare at it and scream. It was the same when he learned to walk and fell, learned to talk and someone didn't understand him, etc. A friend of mine was watching him ride his bike when he was about 4. He fell once and tried again. He fell for the second time, got up, threw the bike as far as he could, kicked it, walked away for a minute and then tried it again. It's a cute story, but so typical of how he deals with things. (Yes, I'm saving money for anger management classes! j/k) He doesn't get teased a lot, but when he does he often over-reacts, which you've learned, makes matters worse. Anyway, long story to simply say, I hear you and understand. You can overcome it, though, and if you're working on it now I'd say there's a good chance you will do just that

    Re: baby escaped.....

    I love the name Meadow. It's such a soft, pretty name.

    Think you'll be leaving that cage door open anytime soon?

    Now you'll be able to relax and have a great 4th weekend!

    Re: baby escaped.....

    Now would be a good time to let him relax and get quiet; to snuggle down and get some rest - don't you think? He's fed, had water and is home safe and sound. He probably needs to settle in, whatchew think?
