Haley, so sorry this happened to you. Please make sure you are okay!!!!

I locked our oldest in the car when she was a baby. I was putting her in her car seat with my keys between my teeth. She reached up and grabbed the keys. I closed the door to walk around to the driver's side and dicovered that I must have hit the lock button without realizing it. It was near noon on a Sunday and I was just leaving church services. I ran into the church building and told others what had happened looking for help. Our preacher ran to the baptistry got a coat hanger and very quickly unlocked my car with a group of church members watching. They gave him a hard time, that he must have a checkered past to be able to open the car so quickly with a hanger. Karen was fine and happy holding onto my keys, but I remember how it felt. It was fall but the weather in Texas was still hot and I was so afraid it would get hot in the car before getting her out. I was about to break a car window, but had nothing around that was strong enough to do it.

Take care, and hope your week goes well!!
