…or sleeping children.
It’s 8:02 a.m. and both of my children (a 7 month old and a 5 year old) are still out. They look like little zombies who have been drugged. They of course are neither zombies or drugged, unless you count the tsp. of Karo syrup I gave the baby this weekend to help him poop.
My husband wants to wake them, but I’m kinda like why? I don’t have to be at work right away and it’s not like my daughter is going to get suspended from pre-school for being tardy. When else in their life (besides when they’re teens) is sleeping in on a Tuesday going to be not a big deal. Besides, I can drink coffee and watch Morning Joe instead of Dragon Tales.
And it’s not like they stayed up late either. Maybe 10:00? (I’m sure some of you moms are gasping that I would let my 5 year old stay up past 8:00 p.m., but I just feel like it’s unnatural to make your kid go to bed when it’s still light outside.)
So what am I going to do with all this morning time? Write, of course.

That’s awesome. Riley was up at 4:40 this morning. Ouch. She did go right back to sleep after a change and a bottle though. She and her Daddy are probably just getting started about now. I’m happy for them that they have this time in the A.M. to take their time getting going. Wish I had that sometimes too

I love it! I still laugh sometimes picturing Harley coming down for breakfast after sleeping in like she was in college getting up after a late night of partying!

Did the Karo work?
