So, Debbi had to pick up some lame sweatshirt from gap kids store by the mall so we decided to go to Cheesecake Factory, yeahhhh! Not yeah… They apparently closed their old location and started up in the mall which was just not that good for some reason. Bummer…
After eating, the kids wanted to walk through the mall. So as we were walking to ride the Mary-go-round, Sawyer fixated on this mini train ride. We went to the carrousel and then came back to go the car. But Sawyer would not let the train ride go. So we decided to just tried it out. …One of those cheesy mall rides that you hope you will never have to do as a parent. …Well face your fears I guess…
The weirdest thing happened. About a couple rounds into the ride, Maya stuck her thumb in her mouth and became completely unresponsive. While Sawyer was still smiling and waving, Maya was un reachable. I tried to say her name over the period of about five laps and she was out of it.
When she finished the ride I wanted to see if she was ok and she just wanted to be held and was very clingy? Dare I say… this had to be something from a past life or something? Although my guess is that past lives are many many years ago and I doubt these trains were around then, but who knows. If you recall we just rode some trains a few weeks ago at Griffith park and I didn’t notice anything like this and this one was tiny.
Very curious what was going through her head. I asked her if she was ok and if she was scared and she said she was scared.
Overall we had a great time but unfortunately probably won’t be going back to that Cheesecake Factory any time soon.
