Wait till you hear what I did!

I go to my parents for supper every Sunday night and I bring Sadie and Lillie with me...Hubby usually comes but, had to work...I got out of my car and went to open the back door and realized it was locked so...I opened the drivers door, unlocked the door (I thought!)....I locked it!! The girls were still in the car and.....my keys and pocketbook were....yup! in the car...My Dad was standing outside looked at me and, must have been the look on my face and saying O SH**!! said...locked the keys in your car right!? Well, I started to panic...Sadie was tied into her seat and Lillie was in her carrier but, I had no idea how I was going to get them out of the car..I called Eric at work and couldn't get through to ANYONE!! Not even security!! I didn't know what I was going to do...My son-in-law said he would bring me home to get the spare key but, I didn't know if it was home or if Eric had it...AND...I don't have a key to get in my house!! I always use the garage door opener...(I know....I need to get a house key AND another car key made!) I thought I having my 10 yr old niece go through the trunk (my back seat folds down) but, I would need the keys that were inside my car to get the trunk open....So......Dad said...why don't you call the police..(AAA would have taken too long and didn't want to leave the girls in the car for that long although, I think I was more panicked than the furbabies!!) So...I called the police...they came in about 5 minutes and unlocked the door!!! YEYYY!!!! I was so happy and excited that I hugged the cop! Everyones ok....even me! He started to laugh and asked if I only had the one dog (I have known this cop since he was a little boy) I took Lillie out of her carrier and he looked at her and said..."O what a little sweetheart! Was kinda funny to hear coming from a cop...then he proceeded to tell me about his dog...a soft coated wheaten terrier..and her name is Lillie too!...

This was something I always dreaded would happen and THANK GOD! I was at my parents and not in a parking lot or something

K.....that's my story for today!

lol ohh lord glad everything worked out

I can imagine that feeling. Glad you got such a quick response from your local police and the "kids" are fine.

I heard about a lady who dropped her electronic key in a puddle and it would not unlock her door. She called her hubby on the phone to see if he would bring his key down. After a few minutes on the phone, she hung up very sheepishly and turned the key around and used the manual end. See, now don't you feel better. [groan!]

LOL! yes I do! thanks

Oh, I can so relate. (I did the same thing and locked my 2 yr old daughter, tethered in her carseat in the middle of the back seat...too far away from the locks to unlock them) The only problem is that here the police don't do that any more and I had to call the fire department.

TWO TRUCKS CAME WITH SIRENS AND LIGHTS!!! I was so embarassed!! My daughter got a free coloring book and a teddy bear from the firemen, tho.!!lol

Lucky for you. The police in my town don't unlock the doors anymore. You have to call a locksmith. The only one in town is only open from 9-3 M-F. One of my relatives did the same thing with her baby, but we had to bend a wire coathanger to get them out! What an ordeal. .
Glad things worked out for you!

It was one of those email pass arounds really! Not me on this one, although I am sure I could think of some equally eye-rolling personal experiences.

I locked my two daughters (ages 3 and 3 months) in my minivan at the car wash. I went through the car wash then stopped the van to get out an towel dry it. Apparently, I leaned on the door lock when I was getting out. It was hot as blazes out but thankfully the air conditioning was on. I was trying to get my 3 year old to unbuckle her seat belt so she could unlock the door. She proceeded to tell me "No, mommy...you told me not to ever do that!!" The one time she listens me lol....I called the police and two police cars showed up with sirens on and everything (apparently it was a slow day for them lol) They got the door opened right away. My smarty pants three year old tells me "Mommy, you shouldn't have locked us in the car" UGH!!! How embarrasing!! She talked about that for the longest time and of course told everyone. She is now 10 and still brings it up on occasion!! She never stops talking

How lucky for you that the cops still do that in your town. They don't do it here anymore. Makes you want a car with the buttons outside, doesn't it?

Glad it worked out.
