Sorry to be so late...OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. Sorry to be so late to this post, but F*&K ME, that's the most terrifying thing ever! Are you okay????<br />GOD, I can't believe it, I feel sick for you both. And to think Glen was doing such a kind thing too. So unjust!<br /><br />Bloody Hell, I'm SO SO relieved for you that it all worked out okay, and even better that the Cops turned up when they did so hopefully that evil-man will be charged, or at least checked-out and tightly monitored so it won't happen to anyone else. Imagine if after Glen had popped him, he'd just gone off into the crowd. At least this way some karmic justice has been served.<br /><br />Oh thank-god you're all safe and sound, and Poppy is none the wiser. Lots and lots of family hugs and kisses I bet!<br /><br />PHEEEEEEEEWflossy-phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15207372419069284680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170118660831237150.post-22879956458268119062009-07-11T18:02:44.569+10:002009-07-11T18:02:44.569+10:00My heart just jumped to my throat as I read this. ...My heart just jumped to my throat as I read this.

I really wish the powers-that-be could get to the bottom of this group of people who offend against children and find some way to have all who show such traits monitored. Harsh, but it is unbearable to think of a child being snatched like this.<br />Fortunately, you can exhale, safe in the knowledge that there are quick-witted vigilant people also. A triumph of good over bad.

Thank goodness for that lady, and thank goodness for your quick husband. I wonder if the police charged the man, and I hope the man who had the seizure is ok too.

It is more common that people want to think. On our recent holiday we were at a busy tourist destination (on Phillip Island) our youngest disappeared in the crowd. I had been holding her hand, let go for about 15 seconds to get a tissue for one of my other daughters, then she was gone. Luckily I had my husband and two teenage children to help me search for her. She was found over 100m away in the carpark, being carried the OPPOSITE direction by a middle aged couple. They said they found her even further away and were trying to locate her family. There's no way a just-turned-3 year old could have got that far in 15 seconds. I truly believe this couple had been watching us (we'd seen them hovering around our family quite a bit all morning) and just took advantage of my momentary distraction. I kept a harness on my daughter for the rest of the trip.Mum-mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10964065407491663047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170118660831237150.post-92096879161782104182009-06-14T03:41:25.830+10:002009-06-14T03:41:25.830+10:00Thinking of you all - what a horrendous thing to h...Thinking of you all - what a horrendous thing to happen.
