Column Classic – Mommy’s Day Out

The last time my mom came to visit, I lost her.

It was like that movie Baby’s Day Out, except with my parent.  I turned my back for one second, and the little rascal got away from me. 

I imagined her crawling along an I-beam at some high-rise construction site. 

But she’s afraid of heights, so more likely she’d be in Times Square, telling The Naked Cowboy he isn’t dressed warmly enough.
