How to freak your children out in a few easy steps....

1. Put them to bed on time.

2. Enjoy your moments of silence while watching adult TV.

3. Go to bed at a reasonable hour, checking all the doors and setting the house alarm.

4. Answer your mobile phone at 12:45 am to let your visiting sister in the house after she has driven over 5 hours to see you.

5. Open the door in a drunken-like stupor without remembering to turn off the house alarm.

Commence freak out.
Enjoy.

We've opened the door and forgot to turn off the alarm before! Daniel used to be scared to open the door because we used to accidentally set off the alarm all of the time! :)

LOL!! Done that, except for the sister part since I don't have one of those. At our house it was to let Zoey out in the middle of the night. Freaked Cole the heck out! ;)
