Last weekend, my husband and I had an unexpected wake-up call.
Either earlier in the evening, or while we slept – someone entered our garage and stole from us. Among other things, they took my husband’s expensive mountain bike, his wallet (bad habit to keep that in your car) – and a set of house keys (also a bad habit).
This is what greeted us the next morning. But I didn’t realize the keys were missing until much later in the day and it totally unnerved me – to think that a stranger now had the ability to enter our home!
After a sleepless night, I called a locksmith first thing the following morning, and was lucky to find someone who could fit us into his busy schedule right away.
Talk about a sigh of relief!

When it comes to my family’s safety and security, I can’t put a price on that. Can you?
