Early to bed tonight, hopefully...

Dear Nicky,

So Mom had to leave on a business trip super early this morning, and there was also a power failure in the neighborhood, so she woke up early and alarmed because the house was in total darkness. So guess what? I've been basically awake since three o'clock this morning. We got a late start to the day, and I've been like a zombie. You kids have been a little wild, but now I'm going to bed and I shall sleep deeply tonight.

Love,
Dad
