Lumpyhead's Bedroom Door

When we got back from Maine, Lumpyhead made new signs for his bedroom door and taped them up:
Problems with this:
1. Orthography
He misspelled "Babies."

2. Enforcement
Nathan Jr can't read, so is unlikely to honor the sign. Lula can read, and even understands the intent of the restriction, but is unlikely to care about some stupid sign her brother wrote.

3. Exclusions
Lumpyhead later clarified that the prohibition did not apply to grownups, or to people who live in our house. Since we don't get many non-family girls or babies in the house - certainly none who want to visit his room - it is unclear who he is seeking to keep out with these postings.

Haha! That's cute. My daughter has a sign on her door that says "Please Knock. Thanks!"

Hey! We're headed up to Boothbay, ME on Friday. Where were you? Any advice on what to bring? (Do you still have my email?)
