caution with the baby!

oh no, what happened? yesterday, a pretty young girl came to our home to take care of the baby. she did all that could make it fun for the child: played with it, sang for it, etc. but even so, the baby attacked her, tore her into pieces, ate her, and threw the rest from the window. what should be done, what should be done? I really don't know. so, right now, we make the affair silent, lest the police begin to ask annoying questions.
