The other night the 3 of us were hanging out downstairs watching t.v. and playing. Bella does her own thing quite a bit and is great at entertaining herself but it got REALLY quiet. Terry and I both seem to notice this at the same time. Terry asked where Bella was and I did not know (bad parents). She could not have gone far because the gate was still blocking the stairs and our downstairs is all open...living room, kitchen and dinning room. We both got up and started looking around and calling her name. NO BELLA! We looked under blankets, as we often find her sitting very quietly under her blankets. NO BELLA! We looked in the bathroom. STILL NO BELLA! This was literally only a minute or so but I can feel the panic begin to set in. We are still calling for her and she is still not showing up. About 30 seconds later miss priss comes walking out of the dinning room, comes straight up to me and puts her arms up for me to pick her up. She had heard me calling her and assumed I wanted to hold her. Little miss had been hiding behind the curtain listening to us call her. She came out as if to say, "Hey guys, I'm right here, what's the big deal." She is so silly. So if she goes missing again, behind the curtains will be the first place we look for her!!
