2010After watching Robin hood at a cinema, we went to Time Square, Page one bookstore to just relax and browse some books. There’s an area there of children’s books and toys and that is where Janna and I played and her dad reads his books. For quite a while, i’d let Janna roam around the area while playing with other children because she often goes back to where we are sitting and she’s within view. But then she went behind a book case and not returned for a minute so i decided to follow her. I started looking for her behind every book case but i can’t seem to find her… for a full minute of searching for her – my heart pounded a little – so i called to her dad and i said I can’t find her. So we went towards the front of the book store (it was a huge bookstore) – and while nearing the entrance/exit area, we heared a girl crying “Daddy, Daddy, Mommy, Mommy!” — hubby said, that must be her…. and so when i looked behind another book case, i saw her there standing with 2 store attendants kneeling in front of her calming her and holding her one hand. It’s as if she’s trying to tell them to find her mommy and daddy. I find it cute with a feeling of relief and yet a bit of guilt for having her had that trauma no matter how short it was…
