See chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run runaway
If you're in the swing
Mud in everything
If you're in the swing
Run runaway
So why are these lyrics in my head? Because of my wonderful morning.
We decided to sleep in today. I have one of those clocks that is already set to change on daylight savings time. Problem is it still thinks the OLD days are DST days. Guess what? Today is the old day for DST. So it set itself an hour ahead, We only THOUGHT we were sleeping in.
The kids were really quiet and everything so we just stayed in bed. The only thing I did hear once was Logan calling out "Babies?!?" Then nothing, so I thought nothing of it.
UNTIL.......
A loud banging on the door. I jump out of bed, put pants on, Rachel peaks out window and says "there is a cop car out front."
I answer the door and the cop says "you got two small boys?"
I said "oh no, they got outside?"
"Yeah" he says , giving me a 'what a loser' look.
The two cop cars both had their trunks partially open and he walked me towards the cars for one second I thought OMG I got to identify bodies!
Then the officers each pulled a plastic tricycle out of the trunks and the kids out of the cars. Not even phased by what they did.
What they did is actually amazing, I don't know whether to be proud I have intelligent kids or mad that they ran away.
Here's what they did.......
They quietly got up (I always hear them otherwise)
They went through 2 doors through the laundry room to get to the basement.
I forgot last night to put the latch on the basement door.
They went into the basement, each got their tricycles, and somehow managed to get them up the stairs WITHOUT US HEARING THEM!
Then they unlocked the back door and went outside.
They rode their bikes 3 blocks away, passed a church, where an older couple noticed them and called the police.
They were found on the corner of two major streets , had they made it 2 more blocks they would have went over a drawbridge and been downtown where Johnny Depp will be filming part of his new movie.
The police found them and asked them their names. They told their FULL names! (Hunter got his middle name mixed up with Tristan's though)
They told their mother's real name!
Then they SHOWED the police how to get home!
The police man was visibly impressed when he comfirmed that all of the answers, except Hunter's middle name were correct. Then even more impressed when I showed the officer what they had to do to accomplish this feat.
Now, to add one more amazing fact to this.....
The dog. They were able to do all of this either without waking the dog that protects them to the end, OR they were able to quietly control the 103 pound German Shepard and get him to stay in the house while they left!
So should I be mad or impressed?
