Told him it was too quiet.

I came downstairs from nursing E to a quiet house.  I asked C, “are the kids inside?” And he said they were in the office.  Hmmmm, I said, “usually when it is quiet for this long, they’re up to no good.”  C walked around looking for them and found them here with lollipops and hershey bars.  I’m pretty sure I can guess which one of them thought of this.
