I have children 9months exactly apart in age and now in toodlerhood so quite a handful to 'watch' when we are out - we go out daily to various places and neither have even strayed momentairily - although Tues I 'lost' my daughter whist we were at a playfarm - ten mins felt like HOURS, fortunately that she was found and this I am grateful for but I can barely sleep, and am racked with guilt about this as I am responsible and for these ten mins I had no idea where she was -whilst I was dealing with my son who had fallen over. The people that matter most keep telling me to move on but I recall the panic, shock and alarm in her face (3yrs next month) - I am sure this has happened to plenty of parents but I had such a fright and generally feel guilt...
