Hot Diggety Dog!

They're doing it again today! Perhaps it's because Christmas is near and Santa is watching. Perhaps they have been kidnapped by aliens and replaced with replicas as E suggested. One of them just asked me where his analogy workbook is; because, he wants to do the work in it! Yep! They've been replaced by aliens alright. My real children have to be coaxed out of bed each morning, reawakened 5 or six times, told several times to get dressed, propped up at the kitchen table, and threatened with the loss of various privileges or assigned extra chores to get them started doing schoolwork. They don't get up in the morning and work diligently on their schoolwork after only being told once. They certainly wouldn't do it two days in a row!

Oh man, oh man! There is hope for them yet!
