Standard Time

So this weekend we gained an hour. And I wanted to shoot all those people who kept saying, "Don't forget - you get an extra hour of sleep." Uh. Yeah. Not if you have two kids who are used to the old time. Liam woke up at 6am and Quinn 5:30. I had Liam sleeping until 7:30 for the past few weeks and Quinn until 6:30. Then we had to switch the clocks. Darn it. Now everything is up in the air again as far as schedules are concerned - and I love schedules.
Also - two kids at work this morning threw some impressive temper tantrums. After they went home I started to think - can I blame this on the time change? And yes, I can. Both kids still nap in the afternoon and both tantrums happened after 11:00, which meant it was noon in the old time, and those kids would have been home and have had lunch and been getting ready to rest. That and I'm betting that most kids woke up early today just because their bodies don't know any different.

Yes, I heard that too and kids just don't have the same type of timeclock...when they are 10, we can sleep again I guess.
