"...We have a lost Mother..."
As I was frantically searching the isles of Walmart for my lost item, running up and down the isles back and forth, praying that it was safe a voice comes over the intercom. "Attention walmart costumers: We have a lost mom in the store, she belongs to a little boy between the ages of 2-3 with sandy blond hair, blue shirt, gray shorts and sandles. Please come to the costumer service desk." Now, before you jump to conclusions rewind 5 minutes. Stetson and I armed with a blue cart where you can sit are picking out a tire guage in the Automotive department. Stetson can easily climb in and out which was fine, but then he made a break for it. I caught him, told him we don't run away from mommy. But instead I think he heard. "Stetson, this is a fun game, you run away from me as fast as your two year old legs can carry your monkey butt and avoid being caught at all costs. Run fast, duck, and hide." Fast foward I am literally running after Stetson calling his name when he ducks into another isle, and hides. Time for a different perspective. (Family), mother speaking to Stetson, "Hi, little guy whats your name? Stetson replies "albjalkd" Mother, "Where's your momma?" Stetson, "Momma go bye-bye" Then the woman frown-smiles at my "abandoned" two year old, finds the nearest walmart employee which is when the irresponsible "lost" mother is paged. As I went to collect my little run-away, half relieved and half mad at this little boy, he looks up at me, grins his biggest Stetson grin with twinkly eyes and all, then turns and books it. Luckily this time I had 5 people to help me get him. Now I know why my little brother had to where a harness!

This is a great post! I am so sorry that you have a runner. He's so lucky that he's so cute.
Oh man....that was totally Aaron on Thursday! Serious! He runs down the isle after the one I go down but usually comes right back. He didn't and I walked up and down isles looking for him. No where. Finally as I'm about to have walmart make a page for him I hear the page for "Lost mommy Camille." Serious sigh of relief! The little devils are good at making me look bad! :)
I don't want to be a lost mommy so I refuse to take my 2-year old shopping anymore. Nate seriously thinks running away is funny...and I'm sure it is if you are the other customers watching. You can bring your little runner over here any time you need to go shopping.
Now you know!!! lol
