After the food fun we went home and watched a princess movie we picked up from the library then went to bed. The next morning Kenedy had a sewing class in Boise and so we dropped her off and then I went to the mall with the two other girls to wander around. While there I had a most scary Mommy moment...let me explain!
See these nice escalators in the picture? See that little ridge on the outside of the escalator that Rylee and Kenedy are standing on? (oh and this picture was taken after we picked Kenedy up cause she wanted to go to the mall and get something, the story happened during the first mall trip.) Well Avynlea took a liking to riding the escalators and so I let her do that for a little, Rylee did not enjoy them and so she stayed with me down at the bottom. Rylee liked that the rubber handle on the escalator moved with the escalator and so she started playing with that. I was looking through my purse trying to locate my phone so I could see what time it was when I heard Rylee call my name kind of panicky. I looked up and she had a death grip on the rubber handle and it was pulling her up on the OUTSIDE of the escalator. Rylee was holding the rubber handle and her feet were dragging along that little ridge that the girls are standing on in the picture. She was already high enough that when I went to grab her I had to reach up high and I grabbed hold of her shirt and yanked her down to me. All I could think about for the rest of the day is what would have happened if I couldn't reach her and she just kept going up and up the outside of the escalator where any moment she could have lost her grip and fell. I was really scared. Luckily I was able to get her and nothing majorly bad happened.Despite the scare (shudder) us girls had a fun Girls Night Out and look forward to next years!
