It was a bright sunny spring day. Birds chirping, warm weather. I decided to go shopping with my mom for the afternoon. Robert took the big kids fishing with a friend of ours and my step dad decided to take the little boys to the car show, aka the Medford Cruise. This is a big gathering at a park in Medford with tons of classic cars all fixed up. About an hour and a half into my shopping trip I get a frantic phone call from my step dad...."Cindy I need your help, I have lost Jason." Every parents worst nightmare right? Well if you know Jason Wyatt, he is a slippery little bugger. Apparently they were watching people climb a rock wall, and he let go of his had looked up at the wall and when he looked back down, Jason was gone. He really is that quick. So I was thinking no big deal they were at the park and he wandered to the playground or something. I told Larry I would be right there calm down. Well I showed up at the park and my heart broke. There were no less than a hundered cars parked EVERYWHERE, and at least a thousand people roaming around. I almost hyperventilated. But I didn't, i calmed myself and started my search. Two hours passed and we still hadn't found him. I was frantic at this point. We had the Medford Police involved at this point and they had called for back up! We had a total of six police officers on the hunt. To make matters a little more difficult, there was also a "tent city" of sorts set up with booths for different vendors.
A very nice lady at the playground recognized that I was at my breaking point (I later found out she was an ER Nurse) and helped me. She had heard they had found him at the trophy booth a few minutes earlier. We went there, and there he was. Sitting on a cute blonde girl's lap drinking water and reading a book. He said "hi momma". He was having a blast. Perfectly calm after being missing for more than two hours. After I was done sobbing for a while I asked what he had been doing. Come to find out, he had WATCHED us look for him, HEARD us calling him, and didn't come to us. He said no I didn't want to come to you cause you were lost. For those of you who know and love Jason Wyatt, you will understand. He wanders off, he always has. This wasn't the first we have lost him, nor will it be the last I am sure. But it was definately the scariest. He is so clueless to what happened we aren't even sure how to "teach"him anything from it. All I can say is it is a good thing he is so adorable, it got him out of a lot of trouble that I had planned to put him in.

Holy crap!!! I'm so glad that you found him!!
I've been checking your blog out; hope you don't mind.
I would have lost my mind, too. At least he was being taken car of and not taken! Kids just do not think about things when they run off like that. I have one that, too, likes to "explorer".
