When Ruby Was Missing

I couldn't find Ruby when I got up on Saturday morning.

I looked everywhere:

under her bed, in Linnea's bed,

on the couch, the floor next to my bed,

I looked in everybody's bed in case she'd crawled in with them.

No Ruby.

I looked everywhere again.

And again.

I started to get a little nervous.

I sent Dennis a text to have him ask Linnea if she

had any idea where Ruby might be.

Nope.

I re-checked all the places I'd already checked.

Dennis and Linnea came in from outside

to help me look for her.

It just made no sense!  

She seemed to be nowhere!

I even stopped in each room to listen for

heavy sleepy breathing.

Then Linnea suggested I look in her closet.

I'd already checked there repeatedly.

Apparently I had not looked close enough.

The "lost" was now found.

I let her keep sleeping.
