NaBloPoMo 3.5: First time all day I've had a minute to myself

This will be short, because my dad is here for a visit, and I want to watch him learn to play the Wii.

My neighbor's kid locked herself out of her house for half the day today. She was in tears when she came over. Of course we invited her in. She's really sweet kid, totally offered to help me make dinner, played with my kids and was just generally better-than-well behaved. We finally came up with a way to contact her mother as we were putting our girls to bed. Three and a half hours and her mom didn't even know she wasn't home.

I'm at a loss for words.

No, I'm not. But I'm not going to go off on a rant here, because I think what I have to say is more properly said to the mom, first. And I'm not sure I'll take it up with her, but I'm sure to rant about it here if I do.

Holy cow! Where is the, "Call me when you get home!" and then the over protective check-ins every 30 minutes or so. (Totally not making fun of check-ins, just describing what I do.)
