While sitting at the hospital tonight with Kellis, I received a text message: Have the children been around escalators before???
April: Hummm, I wonder what he means....
Two hours later, the story is revealed.
Elevator doors open, Maggie shouts, "the Magic Stairs!" Out bolts Isaac, Next bolts Garrett, and After both of them bolts Scott. Garrett has camped out on the down escalator in his dino-hunched position placing one pretzel at a time on the stairs. WOW, OH, WOW!!! Suddenly doctors, nurses, and others were piling up behind Garrett and trying to move him out of the way. Remember he is in the Dino hunch watching each pretzel have their own individual RIDE down the Magic stairs.
Scott calmly talks to Garrett trying to help him move over to allow the others to come down the magic stairs. Doctor Nervous said, "ah, sir, sir... he really shouldn't be doing that! It is dangerous.
Scott (calmly): Yes, I know, he has Autism.
Dr. Nervous: OHHHH, well then now I understand.
Scott is holding Maggie's hand she is smiling!!! She just loves the Magic stairs 1/4 way down, 1/2 way down......
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Screams Virginia!!!!
She is gray, with red streaks and tears screaming for MOMMY!!! Why? She is all the way back at the top of the Magic Stairs. The Magic has disappeared and death eaters...with large metal teeth that are going to suck off her feet are trying to attack her.
DADDY!!!! Cue Music (Indiana Jones...) Back up the down Scott races. With each up step the death stairs have pulled him down two! He fights, he battles....he wins! Step run Save Virginia!! Three more, Two more, One more and....he trips slamming his knee onto the stairs but in the downward motion reaches out to Virginia catches her arms and pulls her into safety!
YES!!!! (Cue Queen--we are the champions)....
Virginia is still crying, Garrett is at the bottom of the stairs watching the pretzels slide to their death on the Magic Stairs, Maggie is Wide eye and nervous, and Isaac, he just says, "can we go already?"
AHHH, Who doesn't love a good old fashion escalator ride?
