A few more mice

So we aren't done with the mice adventures here in our home. There's at least one more, I'm fearing more. We've had the glue stuff out for a couple days which hasn't helped. We've missed catching a mouse twice. This morning I went to get oatmeal for Dawson only to find that the mouse had enjoyed himself in our food cabinet. And of couse, as things go, he chose to eat only things that came from America or Bamako. And the stupid thing didn't even like the American good. He ate a few bites it seems of the oatmeal (the last pack of Quaker maple and brown sugar), a bite out of a pack of poptarts and then another bite out of a box of crackers from Bamako. Dawson was not happy to loose his last packet of oatmeal to a mouse. We told them that a mouse had gotten in the cabinet and Brett even showed them the hole where we think he got in. 

A little later in the morning we were talking about it again and Kenan kept saying "Mickey Mouse did it, Mickey Mouse did it" to which Dawson quickly replied "No, no, Kenan! Mickey Mouse didn't do it, he knows the rules not to eat someone else's food!" :) I didn't even know they knew of Mickey Mouse but I guess they do! If only it were Mickey Mouse visiting and not some Malian mice.
