Seek and Find

I had gone to the club seeking out the food and beverage manager.

He was not in his office.

I then started making brief inquiries with employees with whom I am well-acquainted.

They could not give me a current location or clear direction.

So I did my own investigation—a room by room search—focusing in on likely haunts.

I moved quickly and stealthfully—taking mental notes along the way.

And when I found him in conversation with the financial officer in a hidden alcove, the manager was noticeably startled by my presence. He said Mrs. Ciccone--how did you find me?

And I said Easy. I am the mother of 3 daughters—remember? That classifies me as a first class detective—I can find anybody or anything if I have to—it’s my job.

And then he laughed.


The power of a mother’s resolve should never be underestimated.
