You walk back home, a mile, with friends from school for a play date - other mum comes too. Its one of the hottest days of the year and the journey takes over half an hour. You arrive on your doorstep and realise that you have no front door keys. They've been left on the floor of the school bike shed (when unlocking DS's bike).
All the guests live over a mile away. So in desperation you climb in through the front small top windows - to let them into the house. The children look shocked and say they are scared you're going to fall. Once in you realise that you've double locked the front door so can't actually let the guests in.
Fortunately you've also forgotten to shut the bathroom window at the back, so you climb out of that, again v small top window, bruising your ribs on the way, and open the gate in the garden, letting the guests in - just to the back garden.
You then run the whole mile back to school, pushing the buggy with 1 yr old in it - whilst leaving the guests and DS in the garden to 'play'.
Get the keys - run the mile back with buggy and baby- let yourself back into the house and then let the guests in too.
DH says when he gets home that it wasn't a good example to set, really, was it. Not happy about the windows being left open either.
