Every night, before MM and I go to bed, we make sure to check on the boys, just to make sure they’re asleep in their beds.  (Don’t laugh… we once walked in and TD2 was asleep on the floor.)  Anyway, we’ve also been making an effort to go to bed earlier and generally be healthier.  The trouble sometimes comes when the days are MUCH longer and it’s harder for TD1 and TD2 to fall asleep (their window faces west).  Anyway, last night, we went in to check on TD1 and TD2.  As we walked in, TD2 opened his eyes (it was 9 p.m., and he should have been asleep).

Me:  Hi… why are you still awake?

TD2 (Rather groggily):  I’m not.
