Kiddo about gave Mom a heart attack this morning. Mom woke up really early and noticed Kiddo's bedroom light was on. She went to turn it off, bc he does sometimes fall asleep with the lights on, but nope, bed is empty. She hollered up front (his pc is in the front of the house), no answer. Her frantic yelling of his name woke me up as she was searching every room in the place (it wasn't even 6am). I noticed the front door was unlocked, his shoes were not in the shoe rack, and the jacket pile is disturbed, so I figured he probably went for a walk, and where he likely went. So I got dressed, grabbed a headlamp and my purse, and headed out to walk towards the main drag.
Who do I see rounding the bend as I cross the street? Kiddo. With a bag from the Get Go and one of my thermoses. He apparently woke up at the ungodly hour of nope and decided none of the food in the house would do for breakfast. We weren't mad, just reminded him that A) of no one is home or awake, to LEAVE A NOTE! and B) if possible, wake someone up, because we might give him more money than the emergency cash we make sure he has in his wallet to pick up something for us, or tag along.
