The following story is true. This whole evening I was up Logan Canyon for a girls' camp dinner and testimony meeting (at a tri-stake camp for Laurels). While I was away, Jonathan and Autumn had their own adventure. Our swamp cooler has needed a new belt for some time and Jonathan decided tonight to replace it. We normally get on the roof by climbing out Autumn's bedroom window. This Jonathan did to remove the old fan belt. Next he and Autumn took the old belt to the hardware store to get a comparable new one. We're good so far, right? Next he gets back on the roof and installs the new belt. As he's getting down to Autumn's window, he realizes that it is now shut and locked. While he was on the roof, Autumn climbed on her toy chest and shut the window which has a clasp that automatically locks when shut!
This story has a happy ending as our neighbors happened to be outside and Jonathan didn't have to jump from the second story of our house. They threw Jonathan a screwdriver so he could unscrew the window frame and get back inside. Jonathan has a great sense of humor and let me share this story with you. I'm sure that we will remind Autumn through the years of how she locked her dad on the roof when she was just 1.
