Day 2521. Sammy was up first this morning, as usual, an hour before we needed to get up. Randy then got up as well, and soon Emmy was also up. The three of them then went to breakfast while Tammy and I stayed in bed. My alarm went off at 8 am, then we also got up.

Day 2520. After a short night, my alarm went off at 7:15 am this morning as I had a student at 8 am. Sammy was up immediately. Emmy got up a few minutes later. I then went to the breakfast room to get some food and took it to the room with me. Then I turned my computer on to get ready for my lesson.

Day 2519. It was another short night - for all of us. The kids have been going to bed very late during the conference and had had to get up really early, today as well, even though the conference was over. When the alarm went off at 7:30 am, it was very difficult to wake up Tammy and Emmy who were at either side of me.
