So to begin my story I will let you know I did not want to write this yesterday, I was too much of a mess yesterday so it wouldn't have any humor to it that the story indeed has.
Any how this started on Tuesday night late Logan had a really bad cough so Ed being wonderful went to the store at 11 at night. Well Logan was half awake and took his cough syrup.
I was helping Ed with morning reports and what not when Logan asked if he could go over to his friends house. This is normal buisness and his cough had subsided so I figured that would be and ok idea. Now usually I get a call from his friends mom to let me know that he is over there and I had not recieved a call, this is odd for me so after about 30 minutes I decided to call over there. When she answered she told me they had not seen Logan over their at all. Now my heart was pounding, there are not any other kids that he plays with before school. I went to my next door neighbors house to ask if they had seen him, my neighbor then told me about 40 minutes ago Logan had gone over and asked to borrow one of his son's scooters. Now I am thinking great he is out and about in the neighborhood riding on someones scooter.
I ran in told Ed what I knew and we ran around the neighborhood, to the school, to the next street over and to any house we think he might visit, he was nowhere to be found. I was bawling at this point I told Ed I was going to look on the other two streets and he was going to stay at the house incase Logan came home. Just as I rounded the corner three, yes i said three, police cars drove into my neighborhood and in the first one was Logan there in the front seat pointing at my car.
I stopped my car and rushed over to him bawling asking where he had been and then the officer interveened. I was so upset and he was trying to calm me down and talk to me and tell me what he knew. Logan had decided to go to the Good Earth, to get cough syrup because the stuff that Ed bought tasted nasty. Now Logan has enough money to do so and had it with him, and abvously he thinks he is old enough to get it himself. He walked into Good Earth and asked if they had any good tasting kids cough medicine. Well the lady didn't sell it to him let him leave the store and called the police. Then Logan decided he wanted a donut at the Seven 11 right next door and went in there. Now when the police found him in there he was trying to call a cab because he was tired and was going to need a ride home.
Now today I can laugh about the cough syrup but yesterday I was a mess and for all of Logan's friends out there yeah he is grounded for a while sorry!
The rest of the day was very nerv racking, Ed even stayed home from work with me and watched Bride Wars to try and calm me down.

Wow, just when you think you can't top a Logan story, another one comes around! How scary for you! I am so very glad that he is alright!
for once a child wanders off and there's a happy ending. give him a hug from uncle jordan.
oh my gosh, Im sorry, but that is hilarious! But very scary too, im glad he's ok! I don't think ive ever called a cab, logan is more independent than me it seems!
That smart, independent, stinker. He scared us all, however, after we got over the shock laughed our butts off. Emily, he is more independent than most of us. She needs to get an ankle braclet on him.
That boy! I would've never thought to ask for a cab at his age! He is way too smart for his own good and thinks he is an adult! I'm glad he is safe though, it made my heart sink when mom told me.
I'm sorry but that made me laugh histerically because of the first paragraph I knew it turned out happy! You have your hands full. I hope you learned your lesson....don't give Logan nasty medecine! :) I'm glad he's okay too!
that cute little man!!!
