It's not everyday you have a 7 yr. old hero in your house!
Yesterday Joshua.....well, I'll just let him tell the story in his own words, and I'll type it here for you all. He asked me to post it here on my blog. He's pretty excited.
Today, I was walking from school to the babysitter's house and then there were 2 police cars and police men standing in the babysitter's driveway.
I ask Josh what he thought at this point? Josh's response: Holy Crap!
And then Josh said the babysitter told him she had accidentally locked herself out of the house, -(no kids inside btw).
I asked Josh how the policemen got to the babysitter's house.
Josh's response: A police man was sitting down the road watching around in case anything happens at school, and the babysitter seen him and told him to come to her house. He called the other policeman to help.
"Then what happened?" I asked Joshua.
Josh's response:They lifted me over the fence to the backyard. They asked one of the other girls
who had come home on the bus, to help first cause she was smaller, but she cried. So they messed with the babysitters window and got it open-and they shoved me through the window, and I went behind the couch and walked through the "boy corner" and through the house and unlocked the front door.
What is the "boy corner?", I asked Josh
Josh's response:It's where me and Jonathon play power rangers all the time Dad!
"Do you EVER let girls in there?", I asked Josh.
Josh's response: "Only Carly, because I liked her since I was three..."
ok, now back to the original story....
"I went to the front door, unlocked it, and everybody came in." The babysitter said, "You are my hero Joshua", and we started playing again...
"Did she give you any special treat for being so brave," I asked.
Josh's response: "Noooooooooooo !!!!!, that's it. I'm trying to watch Duck Dodgers now, can we please be done?"
And with that, we are apparently concluding, "How Joshua saves the Day!"
We did buy a celebratory pack of watermelon gum at W$lm$rt last night for the "Hero."
He even shared a piece with me.

I LOVE that story! And he's a true hero because he's humble. I mean he ranks Duck Dodgers higher than his heroic escapade! :-)
WAY TO GO, JOSH!
Watermelon Gum! What a great reward! Great Job, Josh. He now has practical experience when playing Power Rangers.
I shoved Lisa Gard through the very small opening in our sliding glass door once. Her body fit ok, but we really had to force her head through.
She brought me coffee and donuts when I was locked out of my house! Little did she know that she was going to be shoved through such a tiny opening!
Way to go Josh....
OH YES!! and Happy Birthday
tomorrow Denny...........
We Love You....mom.
