The Lost Mitten

How do you keep six year olds and mittens attatched?
Today it was minus 10C with a strong wind, so mittens were a necessity and still one (never two) manages to go astray. When it comes to losing things I am stubborn. I don't give up easily. Having made the children chase several buses and got bus drivers to call each other we finally traced the missing mitten to bus nr 9. Hurray.
It's been a wierd week for finding things. This charming creature got lost on the way home from school in a severe snowstorm. I was sure the snowploughs trundling past must have caught him in their path, but we turned back anyway and a few hundred yards later I trod on him.
Who ever is in charge, thank you, for returning the mitten and Petshop.
