The locked door

Just a quick post, because it is early and my kids are awake and getting fussy! Yesterday Mamaw had a doctor's appointment. No big deal, but it required her to go in for blood work first. This meant she was going to be gone at least 3 hours. At my own house, this is not a problem. At Mamaw's it's a whole different ball game. To do something different and keep the kids from tearing her house up, I decided we would play in the front yard. I had bought some chalk and they could write on her sidewalk and driveway.

This went along fine until we tried to get into the house. Hmmmm. The front door was locked. Now I started to panic. I don't have a key. I have 2 young children. Yes, I know the neighbors but the first thought was EEEEEEEEEEEE all my kids stuff was in the house.

I was extremely lucky because Mamaw did NOT lock the back door before leaving. She also left the gate unlocked. Yep, we just went around back. But it is unusual for her to leave all that stuff unlocked as well. It would have made for a better story if I had to go beg off the neighbors, but I'm glad we got in and I got them down for their naps. Phew.

Ok, Tater is helping me... gotta go!
