(about 1/2 hour after #1 made herself a bowl of cereal)
VFD: #1, Milk goes bad when it's left out of the refrigerator
#1 puts the milk back in the reefer as I get the cereal I want from the pantry
The refrigerator door closes, and I opened it again to get the milk. I poured some into my bowl of cereal and #3 grabbed a yogurt off the top shelf
VFD: #3, put it back.
#3 considers his order
#3 puts yogurt on bottom shelf in the refrigerator
VFD: That's right put it back
#3 considers his goal
#3 looks at yogurt, then at shelves
#3 puts yogurt on top shelf
VFD: Good boy, now clear the refrigerator! (pushes on baby's forehead) Back back back back!
#3 backs out of the refrigerator and I turn around
#3: mm! uh! im! ah! UH! UH! UH!
My Darling Wife and I turned around and saw that #3 was just slow enough on his extraction to allow his little thumb on one hand to get caught in the magnetic latch/seal around the refrigerator door. It doesn't close hard but it holds fast, and he was freaked out. My Darling Wife swept in for the rescue and he cried for a second because he was scared by the fridge not turning loose of him.
That's life, son, and be glad you had a rapid reaction force on standby.
