Day 1560. Sammy was up early, the other two slept a little longer. At 8 am we got up, when the alarm went off, and the kids were eager to open all their advent calendars. Just after 9 am we left the house together to catch the 9:20 train. It was just below freezing, but it had stopped snowing and the sun was coming out.

Day 1559. A day without an alarm clock. Yeah! At least not an electronic one. Emmy was the one waking me up, and of course he was impatient to open his advent calendar. Soon they were all up and wanted to open all the advent calendars, so  I had no choice but to get up and open them all with them.

Day 1558. On Wednesday I had a student right after Randy and Sammy left for kindergarten. In the afternoon Tammy and Emmy had their weekly exercise class. Because it works so well, I stayed home with Sammy, while Randy took them there. They had a substitute teacher, so I did not get pictures or a report this week.
