Oh Rats!

You should be grateful I have no picture for this post. A few weeks ago Daniel said he heard a mouse in the walls of our house. So last week he put out a trap with peanut butter(thanks dad for the idea) and grueyre cheese. At first we thought our mouse must have been American b/c he did not like the French cheese, but eventually he bit and Daniel did the clean up work. Thanks Daniel. So today I went out to the garage to get into our year supply of oats to make some chocolate chip cookies. I brought the unopened box of oats into the kitchen and began to unseal the box. Well, well, well, who should pop their little paws and head out of our box-- a friend of our little rat that we sent to heaven.
Of course I screamed and Olivia said, "Mom, I would appreciate it if you would not scream like that, you hurt my ears." Excuse me!! I got my nerve up and threw the box into the garage and now we have a mouse/rat loose in the house. I will keep you posted on how Exterminator Dan does with the task at hand!
