Sleeping in...

Ahhh - I remember the days (pre-kids) when we slept "in". For my husband and me, that meant sleeping until 9. That was about as late as we could do. Now, I'd give anything for 7. My kids seem to think getting up between 6 and 6:30 is a great time to start the day. Of course, they get to nap during the day. I keep thinking that we will nap when they nap, but somehow that becomes the time to power through some chores. Chores that would go faster without extra help, if you know what I mean.

And I imagine there will be a day when I am begging them to get up - or serving lunch before I see hide nor hair of any of them. And I imagine there will be a day when they won't want to cuddle with me in the morning, or the afternoon...and even getting a hug will be a great feat. And I imagine there will be a day when I am clamoring for even a half hour of their time.

So I imagine that for now, I should be happy we are up at 6.
