Why is it, when at 2 am, and the house is rocked by a loud crashing sound of broken glass, I am the only one to hear it?
Why is it, when the boy comes into our room at all hours of the night, and whispers,"Moma", Jeanne wakes instantly? But when I try to wake her, nothing works until I whisper, "Moma" ? She said something about being zoned in on the kids. I guess it is what they call a mother thing.
Once I foolishly colored her nose with a green magic marker while she slept. She never woke, and I NEVER did that again.
Up until a couple hours ago, we had been keeping 2 little mice that we caught in the house. We had what I thought to be a secure and safe environment for them. A 10 gallon aquarium with a fitted wire screen top.
Yes we had it on the floor, but I never in my wildest imagination thought that Callie, our cat with a case of night crazies would go crashing through the glass to get at the mice.
We have had this setup for a number of weeks, and to be honest, it was somewhat cute watching Callie stare down the mice as they went about their business in what appeared to be a relatively safe haven.
So now Callie has a nice cut on her nose, and she looks like Rudolph. She appears unfazed and is eating drinking and chasing Zoe around.
We will keep a eye on the nose, but the last thing we want is another $1000 vet bill.
I cut my finger cleaning up the glass. I only found 1 mouse, and I am willing to bet, as soon as I fall back to sleep the kids will be waking me for breakfast.
Life is an adventure.
