Where would I find them? I pictured it would be like a big fair or large grocery store. As a young child, it’s so scary to think about being lost in the midst of all of those people. My mom suggested that there might be different sections based on your interests. I would definitely find my dad in the airplane section because he loves aviation. I assured her that she could look for me in the swing set section. This was a very calming explanation for me to hear as a child.

The other day, my son Lukas, age 8, was putting one foot on a cough and the other foot on another cough and basically doing the splits in the air. My dad was holding his arms up and they were laughing.
