Shut Out

This morning, before leaving to head out for the day, I ran outside to scrape the ice off my car. I left OBB alone in the house for about a minute - thinking to myself - what could he possibly get into? When I went to go back in the house, I found out. OBB had bolted the front door behind me. That's right - I was locked out of my house with my child locked inside. He could see me through the little glass panes in our front door, motioning him to undo whatever he did to lock me out, but it was pointless. So OBB decided to take matters into his own hands. He found a hammer sitting in a basket we have that sits on the stairs and started pounding on the front door with it. I think he thought he was "fixing" the problem. I could hear the hammer-pounding all the way to the neighbors' as I ran across the street to get the key they have to our house. When I returned, OBB was still hammering away. I have to give him points for trying.
