My MIL Was Sneaking into Our House at Night, Unaware of Our Door Cam – When I Found Out Why, It Broke My Heart

One night, Lily heard the front door slam and rushed to her son Gage’s room, fearing the worst. To her surprise, she found Gage munching on cookies. This led to the discovery of her mother-in-law’s secret late-night visits, which disrupted Gage’s routine.

The mysterious occurrences began with Lily finding her hairbrush in the living room and her keys in the refrigerator. “What is going on?” she wondered. Gage had also been unusually quiet and sleepy, raising Lily’s concern.

One night, Lily heard the door slam and found Gage awake, eating cookies. “Who gave you these cookies?” she asked. Gage whispered, “Can’t tell.” Checking the door cam footage, Lily saw her mother-in-law sneaking in with treats. When she showed the video to her husband, he chuckled, “She just wants to spoil him.” Lily disagreed, “It’s not healthy for Gage.”

Lily confronted her mother-in-law, who admitted, “I just wanted to make him happy.” Lily suggested, “Why don’t you take him for a week?” The mother-in-law agreed, but by Thursday, she was exhausted and apologized, realizing the impact on Gage.

Lily picked up Gage, and as they drove home, he said, “I like sleeping in my own bed better.” Lily reassured him, “That’s where you’ll be from now on.” That night, she promised Gage no more late-night visits, ensuring a return to normalcy.
