Facebook saved her life...

Okay that's a bit of an exaggeration, but it did help save her.

Let's just say I'm not going to get Mother of the Year for 2011.

For those of you who haven't heard...I locked my child in the car with my keys and phone.

Back in the "ol days" I would have just used my house phone to call 911, but these days, my cell phone is my house phone.

So, I got on facebook and messaged a friend because I know she gets text messages when someone messages her and I didn't want it on her wall for all the world to see...just yet. Thank God, she messaged back and came over.

Once she got to the house she called 9-1-1 and our brave Wylie firemen came to my rescue.

Yes, they laughed at me! Yes, they know my husband has applied for a part time position for WFD! And, yes, they know my BIL is Blake. Sorry guys! Fortunately for the both of you it was a B shift so you will probably never see them. At least any damage done to you will be minimal :-)

If you were worried about Elle, don't. She was fine. All settled in to her car seat, kicked back, watching Baby Einstein. Every time I looked in on her she would laugh. Pretty sure she thought it was a game. Thank God!

The firemen were able to get the door open and once again we were on our way.

Thank you God for the humiliation and reminding me that I cannot do this mothering thing alone. I definitely need this village of mine to help me!

Thank you Brittney for being an iPhone junkie. Thank you for Wylie Fire Department for breaking into my car without breaking my car. And, Thank you Elle for being the best baby ever!
