[blparent] collecting Your Children in Crowds

[Leanne Merren]

Hi,
How old is your son?
Mason and Andralyn usually come to find us, so we usually just stay put and 
wait for them to come to us.  Otherwise, we just ask a parent or teacher to 
locate them for us.  The thing that bugs me is when they walk past and all 
the kids are saying hi to their parents and I can't tell which one is mine 
because they say it quick and they all sound similar.  If they kept talking 
it would be easy to tell, but not just a quick hi.  I feel bad if I don't 
know to respond to them.
