Worst Feeling EVER

Even when you know there is not possible way, you still freak out.

This morning I'm in the shower and this is how our conversation goes:

T:  Where is Ella?
C:  In bed.
T:  No she isn't.
C:  Yes she is.
T:  No, the light is on and she is not there.
C:  Did she go up stairs?
T:  No.  ELLA???   ELLLA???  Where are you?

I jump out dripping grab a towel and drip water all over the house as we search for Ella.

T:  Ella????
C:  ELLA, THIS IS NOT FUNNY!  WHERE ARE YOU!!  meanwhile looking in the hiding spots of hide & go seek.
C:  SERIOUSLY ELLA!!!  COME OUT NOW!!!
Nothing. So at this point you wonder??  But the alarm is set and she can't open a door.
C:  ELLA NOW!!!
E:  I'm here.
C:  Where?
E:  Under the bed.
She is hiding behind toys so we could not see her at first glance.
C:  Why are you under the bed?
E:  Because I'm not ready wake up yet.

Kids.  This provided the worst feeling ever, yet I knew in my head that there was no way that she was really gone.
