Help, I'm stuck!

Miles and I ran some errands (wow, much easier with just ONE kid instead of TWO kids fighting and being hungry) on Thursday after we dropped off Sophia to school. As we were leaving Michaels, I went through the automatic door and Miles had stopped at the door to look at a scarecrow.

Then.....

the door closed.

Miles was on ONE side and I was one the OTHER SIDE. He did not panic, but started to look worried. I keep trying to trigger it from my side, but it would not work. Then I started to tell Miles to "back up, Back up," thinking that he might trigger the sensor. However, he did not figure it out and he probably would not have been tall enough anyway.

I considered running into the store, but was worried that he would panic when he did not see me or someone would come through and he would exit. No good answers.

However, I thought this was the funniest thing EVER and could not stop laughing.

Finally, an older gentleman saw us struggling and came and used the sensor to fix the problem.

For the rest of the day, Miles said, "I got stuck in the store."

Hopefully, he will stay closer to me next time.
