Waiting

Here Al is literally watching the clock waiting for his best friend Jacob to arrive for a sleepover. 

Betsy is at her friend Freya's for a sleepover so I said Al could have Jacob over. Within two minutes of his arrival, they were charging about wearing Hogwarts robes and yelling, 'expelliarmus!' at each other.

They watched two episodes of Merlin and now are playing a hybrid of the two, despite the fact they are supposed to be sleeping.  Last time Jacob was here for a sleepover, they woke Chris up about 3am, singing songs from their Christmas play.  He went down to them four times, but the last rendition of 'Here Come the Presents!' was at about five. I slept through it all.
