Two of my older boys and a neighborhood friend who was spending the night decided it would be a good idea to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night and go wandering through Hagerstown. Of course, they knew it was against OUR rules (we last saw them going downstairs "to bed"), but what they didn't know is that it's also against the law (there is a 10pm curfew). They were terrified when cops came upon them, questioned them, frisked them and drove them home. Not fifteen minutes later, the doorbell rang again. It was the same cop (now she was REALLY unhappy) bringing Caleb home. He apparently knew the other boys had sneaked out and since he couldn't sleep, he figured he'd go out for a walk through Funkstown. We weren't too harsh on them as I think the police put the fear of God into them.

So you seriously think they learned their lesson? Really exceptional job!
