Scary!! We could not find Aubryn within seconds of walking out of stake conference today. We were at the tabernacle in downtown Ogden. It was filled to overflowing. People were flooding out all the doors. Cars were pulling out everwhere. I was panicing inside. I was looking everywhere and moving as fast as I could. I was PRAYING and PRAYING. I'm not sure how much time went by. My tummy was killing me. I hurried past a man and his wife and heard him say something about me being in a hurry and had somewhere to go. I turned and said, "I can't find my daughter!" He said nothing. I thought he would have asked what she looked like and tried to help look for her. After searching outside, I went back inside and looked where we had been sitting. Then I looked on the stage and there she was right by the microphone with some adults. The lady said she saw her in the parking lot and she looked like she wasn't with anyone. I thanked her. Aubryn cried the whole way home. "I wasn't lost! I didn't know where you were." She had told the lady her name and my name. I am so thankful she is okay. I'm even emotional about it. All the worst was running through my head. She could have been hurt-bad. Aubryn is a free spirit. I don't think she is afraid of anything. I am so thankful my prayers were answered and I found her safe. Prayer works. Never doubt it.

UUGHHH!!! I swear that is such a terrible feeling. Especially in today's world you can't help but think the very worst.
I felt panicky just reading it!!!
I am so glad that you found her and that she was safe and sound. Deklan is the same way. No fear at all. It is a bit worry-some.
It's a good thing our Heavenly Father hears our prayers!!!
Oh my, that brings back all those feelings with Hannah in Mervyns and Hailey when we left Shamoo's show in San Deigo. The crowd was so crazy someone walked right through our hands and she was gone! It was like a bad movie. I was FREAKING out! Luckily some man was smart enough to put her on top of his shoulders and walk in circles until we found him.
ARG! My tummy aches for you, too!
Please do see if you can't get that number for me. Thanks!
Oh my gosh. I'm soooo glad you found Aubryn. That would have freaked me out, too. I'm so glad she's safe. In answer to your question on my blog, nope, that picture was me, last fall. I think I was maybe one week pregnant, or something, at that point. But, weirdly, I fit into my jeans right after having Micah. It's because I only gained nine pounds with his pregnancy. I was just so dang sick. I mean, it's nice now, to fit into my clothes, but I paid dearly for it for nine months!
