Lost Luke

I was nursing Gideon, Brian was on the phone, Luke was getting into this little cross thing that Adam had made at VBS.  I got on to him a little and told him he should put it up.  He proceeded down the hall way to hide from me.  Gregory and Adam were down swimming at Pop and Grandma’s house.  Brian got off the phone, I asked him to look for Luke because he had run away from me with Adam’s cross.  We couldn’t find him anywhere.  We walked down to Mom’s but only searched the front yard.  I knew he couldn’t open the door there.  I didn’t call Mom because I knew she’d go into panic mode.  Finally I gave in and called her though. Yup he was there! He had knocked on the door and Granma happened to be in the living room at the time (she was out at the pool, but came in for something).  She opened the door and there he was.  She asked “Does your Mommy know you are here”?  He responded “Yup” and then she asked “Does your Daddy know you are here”? and he said “Yup”. 
So he went out poolside and put his hands on his hips and watched the swimmers.  I guess he felt left out and wanted to join his brothers.  Pop, Levi and Granma watched him and wondered how long it would be before I called.  They should have called me and told me he was there.  Levi thought it’d be a great idea to see how long it would take before I called.  15 minutes of us frantically looking for him, then I decided to call and get mom on panic mode, but she wasn’t since he was there all along!
I’m thankful he was there and not somewhere else! He did get a good “talking to” though!!
