Lost and Found in Primary

We had quite the adventure yesterday, and since it's in the past, it's ok to laugh about it now. It definitely wasn't ok yesterday, lol.

After church, Josh and I had temple recommend interviews. So while I was waiting for my turn, Josh went down to the library to check out the stash of old manuals they were getting rid of. Isabel and Becca went down to the bathroom, which was right by daddy. When Isabel came back without Rebecca, I asked where she was. "She's with Daddy" I was content with that answer. After my interview, I came out and Josh was in the foyer with just Joshy, no Becca. I come to find out that he never had Rebecca! Isabel had left her in the bathroom by herself. So while Josh went in for his interview, Isabel and I start to scour the building looking for Becca. After two rounds of the building inside, I took two frantic walks around the outside. No sign of her anywhere! I was getting really frantic. Since this is a new ward to us, and it was the other ward in session at that point anyways, nobody would see her and know who she belonged to.

Once Josh came out, I took the car and drove down every street around the building to see if she had walked off thinking she had been left or something. Meanwhile, Josh is running around the building looking for her. Thank heavens he found her! As it turns out, she wanted to go back to primary. so she had walked into the primary room, the other ward's primary was just starting, and sat on the Sunbeam row! They asked if she was a visitor, and she said yes. They sang her a song, she had apparently answered questions in sharing time, and had gone to class afterwards! So where Josh finally found her was in a classroom with the other ward's sunbeam class.

After she saw how frantic I was, she decided that she was scared too, but she was really fine the whole time, just having fun in Primary. After we got home, she told me, "Mom, I should have told you I wanted to go to Primary." No kidding...
