Who Has The Keys?
We were over at the in-laws last Saturday for dinner. We stayed until 9:30pm or something before we started packing up and getting ready to head home. As we were busy loading, all the sudden I heard the sound of locking the iron gate. I rushed to the gate and saw Alex standing right in front of it with his hand on the gate. Obviously he shut the gate. All of us were at the driveway, nobody inside the house, and in-laws didn’t bring the keys with them. I started the yell for Ashlyn, and hoping that she was still inside the house to open the gate for us. No, I heard “I’m here!” right behind me. Oh! NO! What to do? We thought about calling the locksmith, but father-in-law said he could get the gate removed. Good thing was, we were able to open the garage door and the tools. You might ask, why not getting in from the garage? Simply because they locked the door to the gargage, and without keys, there’s no difference. After a good 20mins of banging the iron gate, we got the screws out and the gate was removed. Then we had to put the gate back before we could drive off.
Lessons to learn:
Lesson 1: don’t get out of the house without your keys to your home.
Lesson 2: not everybody out of the house at the same time (without keys), except for emergency.
Lesson 3: strap the kids up in their car seats as soon as they left the house.
