Aprils fool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT ??????????????
Mathew and I changed ALL the clocks last night putting them forward by 2 hours.. The kids normally wake up about 7am... This would make the time 9am!!!!

Jacoby came into our room and questioned us about the time.. Pretending not to be worried at all.. He knew it was not light enough to be 8am....... (6am really) he woke early!

Ummmmmmmmmmmm so I teased a bit then told Jacoby to go downstairs and tell Brianna "hurry up they were late for school" Kept Ryan with me as he was sooooooooo excited and would have let the cat out of the bag..
I had the boys go brush their teeth, shoes on and ready to leave any minute and by then Brianna was flipping her lid and getting very uptight and shouting!!!!!!!!!! She does NOT handle stress well I guess.....
Anyway I shouted her upstairs and when she walked into my room we all shouted April Fools!!!!!!!!!!!! Kinda funny as her face dropped then a smile came on her face and admitted we "got her"..
I couldn't let it end now so I figured I would have to "get them" somehow!
At 9am (really 7am) I told the kids that it was time to go for the bus... They said no way... it was only 7am not 8am because we had put the clocks forward TWO hours....
I asked them why had I made them clean their teeth and get shoes on earlier...
I told them we had put the clocks forward ONE hour early really and that we were joking we had put it forward TWO hours...
You should have seen them...
Asking all the time if I was joking... I told them if they didn't go now and started to sound desperate for them to get the bus, they would miss it... I convince them as they quickly grabbed their back packs and headed for the door.. I grabbed my CAMERA and followed them out and as I got out they were standing in the middle of the road looking up the road to see ALL the kids that would be there by now... Not one child was there yet...
OOPs................. I shouted to them "APRIL FOOLs.. and took the picture as they turned to look at me...
They were like a swarm of bees came running towards me with their stingers ready to fire at me.. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny......
Enjoy the picture and hope you had a great April Fool's day..................

I love your description of your wonderful April Fools "joke" on your children. I was laughing out loud as I read it to Jeff. I could imagine my own responding the same way and you just kept it going. Very Clever!!! I will have to work harder as a mom, next year to have a little fun with my family. Thanks for sharing!!!

Too funny! My day was just normal! Normally there are tricks played but not this year. Getting old and boring i guess.
