I'd like to introduce you to another member of our family! He's lived here awhile, but I am just now realizing that he really does exist.
Yep, it's Mr. Nobody. His nickname is Not Me!

Mr. Nobody
I know a funny little man,
As quiet as a mouse,
Who does the mischief that is done
In everybody’s house!
No one ever sees his face,
And yet we all agree
That every plate we break was cracked
By Mr. Nobody.
It's he who always tears our books,
Who leaves the door ajar;
He pulls the buttons from our shirts
And scatters pins afar.
That squeaking door will always squeak.
But why? Oh, don't you see?
We leave the oiling to be done
By Mr. Nobody.
He puts damp wood upon the fire
And makes us greater toil;
His are the feet that bring in mud
And all the carpets soil.
The papers always are mislaid -
Who had them last but he?
There's no one tosses them about
But Mr. Nobody.
He puts damp wood upon the fire
And makes us greater toil;
His are the feet that bring in mud
And all the carpets soil.
The papers always are mislaid -
Who had them last but he?
There's no one tosses them about
But Mr. Nobody.
The finger marks upon the door
By none of us are made;
We never leave the blinds unclosed,
To let the curtains fade;
The paint we never spill;
The shoes that lying round you see
The shoes that lying round you see
Are not our shoes,—they all belong
To Mr. Nobody.
