The source

...of my one gray hair.Last Saturday was terrifying to say the least.
Jake wandered out of the house and was

missing for a heart-stopping 30 minutes.

I'll spare you the details, but it's not the first time he's gone off on his own.
Happily, we live in a secure compound and
other than the lake
(which is far from us)
it holds little danger for a wandering two year old. Fast forward to the following Monday.
Sage is having a piano lesson.
Nate is doing homework.

Reyna and Jeff have not arrived home yet.
I need to fix dinner, so I set up Jake's latest favorite movie,
Monsters Inc.

Doors locked, I go to the kitchen.
Riinnng!
Hello.
Hi, how are you? This is Charles Cranney.
Hi, I'm great how are you?
Good.
I just got home, and guess who's at my house?

I have no idea, who?
JAKE!

He was inside their house with the neighbor's bike.
!!!!!!!
The piano teacher was hot,

opened the back door and he managed
to
escape without notice.

But, at least he went to a friend's house right?

Although they weren't home, he walked right in and made himself comfy.

I have no words.

Help.
