Please read before you consider ringing my doorbell.

Dear young neighborhood friends,

Hello, I am glad you have decided to come visit our house.  Before you arrive, please be advised of the following rules of our doorbell.

1.  If we are napping, please don't ring the bell.  

2.  If you ring the bell once, you don't need to knock or ring it again.  We did hear it the first time, we are probably just ignoring you.  

3.  If someone doesn't answer the door, the boys probably are not home.  

4.  If one of the cars is in the driveway, this does not necessarily mean the boys are home (now see #2).

5.  The reason the front door doesn't open completely is because we have a lock on it that the boys cannot reach.  Yes, that was done on purpose.  

If all else fails, please refer to number 2. 

Thanks,

Jenn
