Power Outtage

On Tuesday morning around 7:15, just *before* I started making H's oatmeal, and just *after* I heard the toaster oven DING that my toast was done... the power went out! H was already awake and downstairs. The power being out was baffling to her. She was amazed by everything that wasn't working. We tried to explain it. When I opened the door to the back yard to check out the temperature... "Hey! The batteries are still working out there!" And I didn't really know what to say, because the sun just... is. It was an entertaining morning! The power didn't come on until just before we left for school at 8:15am. G was convinced that someone went into her room and shut off her fan!
