Surviving

Because it was necessary for their survival when I was pretty sick a few months ago, the kids independently developed their own morning routine which does not involve immediately waking me up when they arise. 

My late night and the rainy weather left me less than ambitious to rise and shine this morning.  As I was drifting in and out of a light sleep, I could hear that the kids were watching television and occasionally one or both of them would climb into bed and snuggle with me for a moment and then go back to doing their thing.

After the third or fourth time of J coming into my room,...

J:  Mom, wake up!  It's 7:39.  I thought you should know that.

Me:  Ok.

J:  Oh, and E is eating marshmallows for breakfast too.

Survival of the fittest.
