In Broad Daylight

Today, At the mall, while my kids and I were eating lunch, and while my friend Beth, and her sweet children were going to the other end of the mall to pick up their lunch.....

A woman yelled.

People stood up.

I stood up and looked out the food court area doors and saw a man hightailing it down one of the rows in the parking lot.

Just a minute later to find out that man stole the woman's purse.

Yikes! Right there where I was with my young children, a crime happened and nobody could stop it. In broad daylight. Makes me think of where I really want to be with my kids.

BUT, our playdate was wonderful, and Beth is such a great friend. It was definitely a highlight to meet and then to go to a craft store together. Fun!
