Kids are funny

so there are these three kids who live across the street, and they _love_ Baxter the dog. At any opportunity they will come over to play with Baxter the dog. I've given them a key to the house so they can check in on Baxter the dog when I'm running late at work or some such thing. And they're great, don't get me wrong, but they're funny too. I have chocolate ice cream in the freezer which they like to dip into from time to time. The funny thing is, they don't want me to know that they're dipping into the forbidden chocolate ice cream, so they'll be _very_ careful about scraping off just the top layer of ice cream in such a way that it's not immediately obvious that some of the ice cream is missing. And they'll make sure to put the spoon they used into the dishwasher so I won't notice it. But then they'll leave chocolate fingerprints all over the refridgerator! Kids are funny.
