Today, Caitlin got out of bed early and without being prompted brushed her teeth, fed the cats and got dressed. She then ate breakfast and having time left over, got to read one of her library books (we're on a Beverly Cleary bender over here - Socks, Ribsy or Henry Huggins and the Clubhouse) for 15 minutes before it was time to leave for school.
The magic device?
A retro $13 alarm clock that sits on the table next to her bed.
Whaaaa?
If only we'd known it was going to be this easy!
Let's hope tomorrow goes as smoothly!

Well, you know, really big girls don't need their mommies to wake them when they have their own alarm clock just like mommy & daddy. She might be growing up on you - better watch out.
