Mornings are always a little rough in my house. My offspring have inherited my love of sleep that's for sure. We pride ourselves on being able to sleep to the very last minute, rush around like idiots while screaming at each other and still be on time.
This morning when the alarm on my new phone went off, I was calmly awakened by the soothing sounds. I chose the smart alarm feature that quietly plays 3 minutes prior to the actual alarm increasing in volume as it goes. This morning I peacefully awoke to "morning flowers"and "angel feathers." It was a great way to start the day and I was certain we'd get out of the house without any yelling.
Ha ha ha ha!
Eva had a melt down because Jaxson peed on the only pair of school shorts she has. How our 5 pound dog managed to climb her dresser and relieve himself on her uniform is beyond me! I learned that 6:30 in the morning was probably not the best time to ask her that. It's really hard for an 8 year old to pick up her only pair of uniform shorts off the floor and put them away.
Alex got to play the hero by giving her the extra pair of shorts that he's been carrying around in his book bag for God knows how long. She decided stinky brother shorts were more acceptable than stinky dog pee shorts.
We have our one and only free Saturday this weekend. I was looking for a fun day trip, maybe even to the river if the weather cooperates, to take advantage of this rare occasion without other commitments. Now I'm pretty sure I'll be cleaning out bedrooms and teaching my angels the wonders of the washer.
