AT about 11:30pm last night I was finishing up on computer., when all of a sudden the house alarm sound. I did not hear any strange sounds so I get to see what was going on. I noticed that the front door was unsecured and the panel indicated that the front door had been breached. Figured I did not secure the door after going out for dinner and that the wind pushed it enough to sound the alarm. I reset the alarm and secured the door. Not scared yet cause I did go out and I was the last to come home so it's my fault.
As I headed back to the computer something said look around to make sure. I go pass the boys room and didn't see my 7yr old. I check the top bunk still not there. I go to my room don't see him in the bed with the wife. I ask her where is Myles, she ask what do I mean. I told her what happened she gets up and go look. By this time I had pushed her out of the way told her to call 911. With glock in hand I run out the door screaming his name. No response. I screamed louder and more frantically and I hear him respond by saying yes. As I proceeded down the outside stairwell I see him on the ground level making his way back to the stairs. I ran down to great him and looking around for any foul play.
I take him back up stairs and asure him that he was ok. I questioned him about the incident and he said that he thought we were going somewhere and he heard mommie calling him. I asked him did he remember opening the door he said no. He just remember seeing the stairs.
He was sleep walking. We knew that he does this from time to time but never to that extreme. I woke today and put a security chain on the door so that this doesn't happen again.
Thanks for letting me vent and thanks for reading.
