. It was our first time to go there. I was awed! There is so many butch and dykes there. It was amazing to see those professional players who acts like us! So humble!As soon as we were ready to go back home. We were standing in line, I was checking my pager
. I got a message from a babysitter. Oh no! H asked me - what's wrong? I said its from the babysitter. H got so worried and said - what's wrong - is everything ok? I just was chuckling.Message from babysitter: Don't want you to be panic. My mistake to put her in the swing. Now she is stuck. I can not pull her out. I'm trying to calm her now and figure out how to get her out. I'm thinking what to do next.
I replied: That's ok... Important to remain calm. Take M's shoes off and tell her to straight her leg and feet down. Then pull her out from the swing. It's ok. Please keep me post.
Message from babysitter: Pull her out in front or from back?
I replied: Try both.
Message from babysitter: I tried everything. She still stuck! She is ok. She was upset a little. She is calm now.
I replied: Oh no... Is she crying now? ummm.... I think I will contact one of my freind who live nearby.
Message from babysitter: M said, "I'm a little BIG for this swing"
I sent her other message: Where K?
Message from babysitter: sleeping on me at this moment
I sent a message to my friend who lived nearby to see if she could help. She replied and said she's on way to playground to help babysitter.
I sent babysitter a message : my freind is on the way and tell M - mommy's friend is coming to get you out.
Message from babysitter: I told M. She is very much calm. She's so good!
Message from babysitter: M is out of the swing finally!!!
Friend sent message: LOL, That was my first time I see a kid stuck in the swing. glad to help the sitter. Gave them a ride home and now they are cooling off.

I replied to a friend: Many thanks and I owe you one!!!

Are you kidding me ?! Mikaela can't be that big. How did her little body get stuck in a swing ?
That is tragic, scary, and hilarious all at the same time.
TOTALLY something Syd would do. :)
Good thing they didn't have to get butter and a pair of scissors. ha ha
Glad that you had a good weekend.
Oh my gosh, no way!! That is too funny. (now that it is over and she is okay) What a good babysitter to keep you informed and to keep M calm.
Oh that's awful! Funny but awful! I could just see poor lil Mikaela all greased up with butter and being slipped out of the swing! Glad it didn't get to that point.
29 days!
Kj- there were two different sizes. She picked the smaller one. I kept telling her that she's too big for that swing. I guess she now learned her lesson. I do wish to have pictures to put in scrapbook :o(
Merr & Kim, yes I think its funny too. I laughed. I spoke with Mikaela to make sure she's ok. She said - I'm a very BIG girl now. so funny...
That's a good babysitter
And a very funny situation (since it's not my kid)
poh-Yes I'm glad it was my kid. It added her memories in her book of her life.
Yes, I was lucky to have her as babysitter as I know her for more than 30 years.
What a funny story. I can picture it. Olivia's chunky legs and hubba butt get stuck in the shopping carts - she gets mad, I laugh. It feels so wrong to admit that. You better tell the sitter to bring some olive oil next time.
I guess she won't try that swing again! LOL. Glad she was able to get her free!
That's scary and somewhat funny (now). I'm sure everyone's happy that's over!
