Yep. Not only was he up on time, he got right to work on his room. This is the same kid that usually drags ass downstairs right as he's supposed to be awake, falls on the couch, and stares off into space. I dunno, maybe he made coffee, y'got me. All I know is he's got more done today than I've seen, and he's still going strong. I went up for a bit, helped with a little planning, and let him know I was proud of him for stepping up and doing right, so if he gets the closet done today, he can wait and clean up the rest of the room tomorrow.
Every now and then, the boy surprises me.
