Baby Burglar

All is still busy in Pennyslyvania. Sister Michelle drops off Baby Tommy to Nanny (Mum) for babysitting and heads off to her last week of work at the hospital. Lisa grabs car keys and rushes out the door to go to Michelle's and ship. Baby Tommy promptly falls asleep in his car seat in the middle of the living room floor. Lisa arrives at Michelle's house... no keys! Back to Mum's.

Lisa walks in the door... no Mum. She walks in to the kitchen only to hear Mum pounding up the basement stairs at top speed. She bursts out of the basement door headed straight for the baby in the living room clutching the most incredible defensive weapon bound to deter any criminal. A plastic broom.

Lisa says, "Mum?" Mum jumps 5 feet in to the air and turns upon Lisa with that terrifying broom. What are you going to do - sweep that baby burglar away?

Haha, maybe your mum's a secret ninja and can wreak all sorts of havoc with just a broom. You never can tell with mums, learning all sorts of stuff in their spare time when we're not looking...

Don't feel bad, I once grabbed a lint roller as defence against a potential intruder. Believe me, the brooms wins.
