We met a couple weeks ago at the Trinity retreat and I came across your blog a couple days ago.

The police officer stopped by to see if everything was okay. My daughter ran and hid, as did her two-year older brother, since he was the one who dared her to call...a few days later we were in a local shop and the same police officer walked in saying someone there had dialed 911. I looked at my daughter and gave her a horrified look (as I am sure the officer recognized me). We then realized that the phone number from the 911 call wasn't this store owner's, but the previous tenant of the shop. thankfully my daughter was off the hook. thanks for sharing the Summer stories!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8029479726972180827.post-47170874192356324912009-02-26T12:08:00.000-08:002009-02-26T12:08:00.000-08:00I'm usually a lurker here, but I just have to tell...I'm usually a lurker here, but I just have to tell you - your daughter is something else.
