Today, I had a little bit of a scare. I needed to mow the lawn this morning, so I strapped Breelyn to my chest, locked all of the doors, and started cartoons for Brody and Abby. Every few minutes, I'd stop the lawn mower and go check on Abby and Brody to make sure they were okay. I finished mowing the back lawn, put the lawn mower away and went around to the back of the house where it wasn't locked. In that small amount of time, Brody unlocked the door and left through the garage. For those of you who may not know, Brody is autistic. He has no concept of the dangers around him. He also has no fear. Brody still cannot talk and unfortunately, he won't respond to his name. This is not the first time he's run away, but it was one of the scariest times for me. I can't tell you how many horrible thoughts went through my mind when I didn't know where he was. I and 3 other neighbors searched for Brody. We found him 3 houses down from us, playing in some dirt. I'm so glad that he was okay. I just want all of my kids to know how much I love them, and how blessed I feel to have them in my home. I took these pictures today.

I think Brody is the sweetest kid, and I'm so glad he was okay. I love all your kids. We REALLY need to get our kids together again. Ella can not stop talking about Abby and her dress-ups!
