A Morning Unlike the Rest!

This morning I was getting ready like usual and Lauren was watching the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and I went to go start my car to get it warmed up. When I turned the key the lights came on like normal and then the car just shutoff. Nothing would happen when I turned the key, so I called Erik and he said it sounded like the battery was dead.. The head lights weren't left on or anything so I am still not sure why it died. I wasn't to concerned because we have 18 hundred vehicles. I then went to find the keys for the Grand Prix and it was a success! I went out to start the Grand Prix (that hasn't been moved for a couple months, and started like a charm) and moved Lauren's car seat from the purple car to this one and ran back to the house and when I went to turn the handle of the door to the house it was locked... I looked through the window and there was Lauren by the door (she had been playing with the handled because she can reach it now and locked it on accident). AHH my keys to the purple car (the one I always drive were in the house with Lauren) so I try really hard to use my super powers and open the door, but it didn't work. Then I was trying to get Lauren to play with the handle somemore and maybe twist it back to unlock and that didn't work. I went to the back door hoping that it was unlocked and it wasn't. I called Erik and said very firmly "How do you open doors with a credit card because Ineed you to tell me how or you have to come home now and unlock the door because Lauren locked the door to the house while I was outside." He was surprisingly very calm and said just chill out and you can't open these doors with credit cards but go to the garage and get a screw driver and go to the back and pry the door open. So I am thinking "yeah right, I am really going to pry the door open" So I run to the garage and find a screwdriver and go to the back door. I start doing what I think is the right thing to do and it was not working! Then Lauren came to the back door because she could hear me russeling around and she started crying. So I was even more frantic and starting prying (come to find out the wrong way) Erik finally said just stop what you are doing and listen to me. So he told me how to pry it open and it opened finally! When I went in the livingroom Lauren was sitting on her chair with a worried look on her face watching T.V. We hugged and chilled for a minute then we had to be on our way! If anyone was watching me they were probably falling over laughing, because I am laughing as I am writing about this:) But we made it through the morning and all is well!
