Midnight Musings

So here I am at 12:30 AM entering grades on my computer. I enjoy staying up late with one requirement: sleeping in. However, I have to get up at 6 AM which will be no fun at all when it comes. I'm starting to feel a little delirious, but grades are due at noon which seems strange to me since we all have classes in the morning. I've had a ton to do lately and am not done doing grades early as usual. Not only do I have class, but I also have to teach the SAT prep class at 6-9 tonight after school. I needed a break so I decided to relax and write some stuff on here for a bit. Mackenzie was her usual intelligent self yesterday. She says stuff so quickly and surely about things you wouldn't think she'd know. Or at least things you would think that she had right there ready to say without really thinking about it. A subtle example of that from yesterday: We had breakfast for dinner and Joanna made 6 pieces of bacon. Mackenzie asked if she could have more than one piece. Joanna told Mackenzie that there wasn't enough and the kids could have 1 piece and the parents 2. Mackenzie said that we could just cut them in half and we could all have 1 and a half pieces. How could we say no to that. So, Kenzie split the extras in half and passed them around.
Joshua and Levi went with mom grocery shopping after dinner and Josh was a great help. Levi is really difficult to keep in a shopping cart. So, Joanna tried the car in the cart cart. Joshua hung out with Levi in the car and Levi was so excited that he was in there with Josh that he wasn't trying to get out at all. I love the picture of our serious little drivers. I just have a little more to do on my grades, so I'd better get at it. I'm aiming at sleep by 1.
