He looked to the clock and seemed to debate.  Taking a moment to watch Beth before he nodded to himself as if deciding.<br/><br/>"Yes... I think it will keep. I will you and Mattie sleep for now as you both need to be up and ready at dawn for us to get to a school assembly.  So you get some sleep, I will be here very early  We will see to your first punishment later then I think Beth.  So get some sleep."<br/><br/>He took her pad and handed it back to her and leaned to get his bag from the floor.<br/><br/>"Thank you for letting me see your artwork, I will enjoy seeing more.  For now goodnight I will see you both early."<br/><br/>He then departed leaving the door slightly ajar as he spoke to Mattie a moment before sending her back in.
