So, the big excitement at the Lomshek home today was Zala locking herself in one of the basement rooms. Ryan, our employee and friend, was kind enough to watch the kids while Janez and I ran over to Ziga's pre-school conference. When I came in the door, I yelled, "How's it going?" and Ryan, who is extremely laid back (and great with kids), yelled back, "NOT GOOD! Zala locked herself in this room!" Ryan felt bad, but keep in mind--this could have happened to any of us. Zala has been
this close to being able to twist doorknobs and has been very fond lately of slamming doors in others' faces and saying "bye bye!" I guess has also been intrigued by the lock mechanism on doors as well.
As luck would have it--upon closer examination this room, where we keep a lot of our inventory in the basement, we discover that this door has a lock that requires a key. (Usually I just pick the locks if something like this happens....). We couldn't find a key that worked in the lock, and we couldn't coax Zala to unlock the door, so Janez had to bust the door in. He was quite the hero and Zala was very relieved to be in her mama's arms. Ziga of course was right there in the action and was very helpful in talking to Zala while she was behind the door.
So... we have a new repair to add to our list. Thankfully my wonderful husband came through again tonight and unclogged the disposal for me. Other news: After two days of being fever-free Ziga's fever appears to be back.
Good news--Ziga's conference went great and we are told he is very considerate of others and etc. etc. It sounds like he is doing great at his pre-school (which he loves, and we love)!
