Creative Shopping

I think it's amusing how I could entertain our little curious and independent child while daddy does responsible errands. Today we went as a family to Food 4 Less for the first time. We only had 5 items on our grocery list but once we saw great deals we ended up with a cart load. Before our cart was more than half full our little wiggle wonder got ants in her pants and wanted to browse around with her hands. Of course, me the anxious parent would not dare let Breanna wander in a heaven full of packaged "toys" and dentable goodies in this wonderful store so I snuck her out and walked to the laundromat which was just one store away - and was it a good idea! There I could let her free to drive around those laundry carts and fortunately at this time of night there were less than 5 patrons using the facility, which means lots of driving space. I think I got an emergency escape plan figured out for our next Food 4 Less trip with a wiggle worm. God, thank you for creativity.
