Day Light Savings

This past Saturday night I was reminded that Sunday morning was Day Light Savings time and we would thus be blessed with one more hour of sleep. Did someone forget to send that memo to my kids? They were up bright and early at 6:20 AM which was really 5:20 AM. Joy! And in trying to switch them over for Monday morning, we invited some friends over to dinner so that Ethan and Isaac would be entertained and stay up later and hopefully sleep in the next morning. A half hour past him normal bedtime, this picture was taken.
You see the glazed over eyes? Yes, both children actually stopped playing, laid down on the couch and announced that they were tired. Not ten minutes later Ethan announced that he was tired and going to bed. He then walked into his room, turned off the light, closed the door, and actually put himself to bed for the first time ever. How bizarre! So much for that extra hour of sleep.
