Scared Half to Death

Tweet

I had a scare this week. I called my sons home phone and left a messages, he always calls me back when he can't answer, but he didn't. I called the next day and still no answer. I called his wife and her office told me she wasn't there.It suddenly struck me that he and his wife could have been in an accident. Scared me half to death. I don't usually call my sons cell phone because he's often in meetings. But I felt this was an emergency and called his cell phone. He answered and told me he was in a meeting in DC and would call me as soon as the meeting was over. And he did after he got to his hotel. He said he could see the White House and it looked quiet and peaceful. He usually calls me when he's going out of town because he knows I worry. He apologized saying he was so busy right up to the time to leave that he forgot. I accepted, but I'm thinking he'll remember to call next time. I know he did forget because he's a good thoughtful son
