Mitten War claims first casualty

This morning, a minor skirmish in the daily battle of the Great Mitten War of 2009 turned into a major setback for the offensive forces as a Mommy Mitten went missing in action.

The loss occurred somewhere about 30 minutes into the journey during a failed attempt at a sneak attack when G-man's hands looked like a prime target - cold, exposed and not holding on to a toy. Sadly, said mitten vanished in just a few moments. When the air cleared and the screaming died down, it was nowhere to be found. Not in the stroller, not on the sidewalk, not hidden in a pocket. 

Sigh.

So farewell to thee, super soft, super warm, super wonderful left mitten. You will be avenged.
