Good evening, officer!

This maybe one of the most funniest, interesting, hall of fame type of story in the years since I've been a mother. One of my dearest friend, is having her baby tomorrow (she's getting induced). She has a four year old son that needed some companion while mom is having the baby and dad is emotionally supporting mom. So fast track to an hour and half ago. They were bathing together. And as two active 4 year olds will be during bath time, there were some splashing, some banging on walls, some screaming (for fun!!), and all out giggling. In short my apartment was loud and festive. After bath they got dressed, drank milk and bedtime story. While I was reading them bed time story I heard a loud knock at the front door.
Me: Who is it?
Man knocking on the door: Ma'am open it up its he San Bernardino police department!!!
Me: *thinking* cops? why? are we getting evacuated? was there a shooting nearby??
Cops: Ma'am we got a call about some loud noises possible domestic abuse.
Me: okay
Cops: We need to see some driver's license and check out your apartment.
So comes in two 6 foot tall police officers or at least they were tall (have u seen me, little miss 5ft tall). They check the kitchen, my patio, radio in my drivers license, and one of the police officers interviewed the two 4 year olds. At first the boys were apprehensive but then Nathan introduced himself and introduced his friend to the police officers. They were talking and seem to like the idea that there was a police officer standing in front of them before bedtime. wow!! So after 5 minutes they left, I thank them and bid them a good night. When I went back to the room Nathan asked me wither the police officer was my bedtime surprise for him. *huh!* I had to break it to him that they were here to check and make sure we are all safe.
And here I am thinking my life is boring. Nope...Although it got me thinking, geez they're only four years old and cops come to my house to regulate the noise. Is this a glimpse?
Oh just too funny!!!
