Ha ha! Ain't daylight savings time a bitch?! And no, I would not want my daughter, especially at her young age, to repeat what her mother had said concerning my breakfast. That, my friend, would not be a pretty sight, LOL!
Great story, funny and very clever. But, hey, it happens!
Good luck to you.

this is very well written, mystery writer, you did an excellent job writing this story about the clock that didn't get sprung forward and caused chaos in the house. I guess I'm naïve but I couldn't get what the last word was the little girl was trying to say. good luck in the contest

Out of the mouths of babes - terrific story. I wonder just how many like stories reside in so many family households.

Trying to figure out where Mom had to go on a Sunday morning without the family. Spring forward and Fall backwards are two weekends I don't like.
Well done with your entry, Buck

You have met the prompt rules, your short story will at least make it into the contest.
A child asleep is woke by her father the focus, the development is the fact that her mother left in a storm. Because no one had put the clocks ahead for Spring daylight savings time and she was late for work.
...She kept saying (chg SRING to SPRING)AHEAD...
Keep writing and good luck with the contest.

Hi,
Cute story. Kids are the greatest to create a story behind. Their innocence so lends one to creativity.
Nicely done. Good luck in the contest.
Cheers & Blessings

HAHAHA, sounds exactly how a small child would explain what she's heard. Excellent funny story in less than 150 words. All the contest requires are met. Best of luck.
