Daine and Becky are very good friends of ours. They have two young, cute, funny kids named Sloan and Kaylyn. Becky has been going to school for a few years trying to get into nursing school at Grand Valley. (GVSU) (updated, she will start in the fall!!)This event happened last year during golf season. Becky was at school, and Daine had golf league on a Tuesday night. Vic had agreed days before that she would pick up the girls from the baby sitter, and Daine would pick them up after golf.
Thank goodness for rain. I say this, because the golf league got rained out. Daine was done after one or two holes, and he called Vic to see if she had picked up the girls. Daine described the phone conversation this way.
Daine: "Vic, I got rained out, and I'm coming to pick the girls up early"
Vic: "What girls, they are not here? Is it Tuesday already?"
Vic: "Oh no! x>&%$##, its Tuesday, I forgot to get the girls!"
Vic (panic mode): " Daine, I'm leaving right now to get them, I'm so sorry I forgot!"
Daine: (Laughing): "You don't have to, I will get them from the sitters."
Like I said, thank goodness for the rain, or this could have ended up badly. As Vic always says, "On the street, without a treat to eat".
Our America has a slogan, "No children left behind" and I say, "two children were left behind, and Vic felt like a behind"
