Difficult day for emergency crews, families in Bountiful

Note to parents : Do you really know where your kids are right now? Can you see them?
The kid was not in the bathtub. I looked up this article after visiting the child in the hospital this afternoon, because the mother mentioned that the grandmother called her and told her about the article. Where do reporters get this stuff? Grab hold of any rumor that comes their way? Two older children were in the shower at the time, and the toddler was playing in the house with parents present.
It only took a few seconds with a back turned, I believe, for him to test out his new skill of opening the side door of the house to put him out on the driveway and crawling under the car, out of site of the driver.
This was not negligence. This was an accident involving good parents who, like most parents, do not follow their child around the house every second all day long.
Just setting the story straight. The family is doing well and the child improving! Many thanks to emergency workers and prayers of family, friends, and even strangers.
