Eggs...the great motivator

Our mornings do not always run smoothly around here. HT is pretty convinced that there is absolutely no reason to get moving in the morning. He is SO not a morning person. I do truly understand as I am not one myself, but as an adult I recognize deadlines, and the school has a definite starting time. This morning was another morning where I didn't have to work and we are still in the "off" week for safety patrol, so I told the kids that if they got moving and everyone was ready in time, I would make them eggs for breakfast. This also happens to help me in the fact that I have a couple dozen eggs that are entering their "sell by" date this weekend and I'd like to make sure they get used up before then. I had to laugh how it turned out. Guess who the first child was that was ready this morning...yep, HT! He was ready and WAITING for me to get those eggs cooked (they are one of his all time favorite foods). I still have more so I offered to make them again tomorrow (I have an appointment so I know I won't be working) and I suspect it will be equally successful!
