The logic of single motherhood

I went out to the library and to grab some lunch with the 2 kids today. When returning to the car, I was reminded of one of those logic puzzles - the fox, the chicken, and some corn need to cross the river and the boat can only take 2 of them; what's the fewest number of river crossings?

My version,
(1) 21 month old daughter on my hip with potential to run out in parking lot
(2) 1 month old in stroller screaming as he's hungry and it's 35 degrees outside
(3) My purse in the stroller basket
Which do you leave unattended the longest?

For me, it was the purse.
