Mouse in the House

We spotted what we thought was a mouse in the house while we were eating dinner one night. My city kids freaked out. They all jumped up on the island/cabinets and didn't want to get down. Don't let the picture fool you. Cole was the first one on the island and the last one down. We set a trap overnight, and the critter was caught. The mouse turned out to be a shrew (ewww!). You should have heard the kids' reactions when I told them that shrews typically travel in packs of a hundred or more. So gullible!
