She wrote;
A mother put her toddler’s favorite channel on the TV, left her there, and went to tidy up the kitchen. Once she was done, she returned to the living room to play with her daughter but couldn’t find her.
She called out her name, but there was no response. She became a bit worried, quickly checked the rooms, and went outside to see if her daughter had snuck out through the front door, as she had just learned to open locks.
She couldn’t find her outside either. Panic began to set in. She kept calling her name and started searching the rooms again. That was when she saw her lying on the ground, hidden by the bed.
