Unbelievable!

I was at lunch today with a friend and there was a woman at the booth across from us with a baby in a high chair. About half way through lunch the baby started crying and we looked over to see that the mom was not there! Our waitress saw this at the same time and sat down with the baby to try to calm him down. The three of us were just staring at each other in amazement that the mother was not there. We did not say it out loud, but we were all wondering...is she going to come back? After a couple minutes, which seemed like hours, the mother came back. She said he had been sleeping...uh, no he wasn't.
