I live with scoundrels!

This is the conversation I heard between Marissa, Xiomara, and Kemiah...
M - Kemiah, are you going to paint after lunch?
K - Yes.
X - That's so cool! What are you going to paint?
K - In my painting book.
M - That will be so fun!

You think they are really talking it up and excited for Kemiah, especially since Kemiah asked to do it Saturday (but it was too late) and Sunday (she was able to paint for a little while). The rest of the story is that our friends came back yesterday and left their dog with us for the next week. So, in reality, they were not interested in her activities at all, but they were trying to make sure she stayed inside so they would have less competition for "walking" the dog - they hold the leash while they wander around the backyard with the dog. Eventually Xiomara did invite Kemiah to come outside and play with the dog, but there is a schedule and time slots so they won't fight.
