Fantastic Sibling Moments Post#12: Mouse Invasion?

It was a dark and stormy night...

Okay, actually, it was nearly 10 p.m. and I had just finished my nightly Bible reading and was about to turn out the lights. All of the sudden, I heard shrieks in the hallway by Gubby (13), Mini-man (11), and Mozzarella (18). Gubby and Mini-man were more "yelling" in a "manly" tone of voice, and Mozzarella was doing most of the shrieking. Following the initial commotion, the following took place:

Mozzarella: "He's right there! Eek!!!!
:momentary inteligible exclamations and shrieks:
Mozzarella and Mini-man: "He went into Sonia's room!"
Me: "...Sigh..."

Then, Mini-man burst in with a hammer, followed by Gubby with some sort of contraption (a rolled up paper plate?), Dad with a large stick, and Mozzarella with her drama. Apparently, there was a shrew.




Note: our bedrooms are on the ground level, so every once in a while a critter such as a mouse or a shrew, sneaks into our house (but don't worry, we get rid of them pretty quick!).
