Dear Timekeepers,

Did you turn your clocks ahead yesterday morning? It was a bit darker on your way to school this morning, but you’ll get an extra hour of playtime this evening.

What I find amazing is how all Americans (except Arizonans and Hawaiians) remembered to do something as silly as turning their clocks ahead one hour. That all humans across the globe have agreed to a standard time and follow it to the second seems even more incredible. We take that for granted now, but just a few hundred years ago the idea of a worldwide time would have been inconceivable. Now we can instaneously communicate across the world. It’s really incredible. 

I can’t wait to see what new and inconceivable ideas you’ll come up with in the future.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
