I’m glad to see you so chipper!  Looks like that hiatus was well-needed, after all.  Now let’s see if you can use that energy for your girls, hmm?  Welcome back!

While I don’t usually condone tossing children or mentally unstable people, I think in the case of a hiatus I can make an exception!  I’ve got your girls on leave until January 31st, so that should give you plenty of studying time.  I want you to do well, so no slacking!  Good luck, and we’ll see you back then.
