    She locked herself in the bathroom

    No, not Mara.
    No, not with the lock.  (Noah taught me those were nothing a corn cob holder couldn't undo five years ago).
    Audra did it with the drawer.
    I could touch the drawer and even moved it a little bit but mostly to get my hand on the drawer I had to open the door too far thus pinching the drawer in place.
    Remain calm.  Everyone is safe and mostly happy for the time being and the bathroom does have a window if all else fails.
    Take a deep breath and call hubby.
    "Are there any tricks for closing drawers?"
    "I don't get what you're talking about."
    "Audra locked herself in the bathroom with the drawer."
    "Hmmm"


    But she was free a few minutes later thanks to a plastic putty knife.  Tom suggested a razor blade on the end of a ruler.  In the process of locating those items I saw a putty knife and WaaLaa! I was able to close the drawer and free the toddler.
