Security

Last night when we went to leave the library it was pouring rain! I said told my husband, "I'll wait here while you get the car!" "Me too," piped in our kiddo.  My husband replied,  "Nope, if you don't come now I'm just driving home." I said, "Okay," and waited inside the door. 

Our kiddo was very torn as to what to do. "We need to go!! he said anxiously.  "No we don't" I calmly stated, "he'll come pick us up." 

"How do you know?" 

"Because he loves me." 

Understanding seemed to dawn and he stood tall, "He loves me too!" 

"Yup!" I said, "he loves us both and he will not leave us here." Seconds later he pulled the car up and that kid just beamed as he made a dash to the car! 

 I think we added another notch of security, but the battle to overcome the emotional trauma continues!
