"I wanna boiling egg- no oak! "
and My eyes are not even open yet and she is at the side my bed with her pooh blankysippy cup with water in tow demanding food! I need to teach her to hit the ON button on the coffee maker before she get hungry.
I'm up, I guess, but first I try the ol' "Sweety, are your brothers up yet?"
"Nope just me...." she is smiling with her crazy bed-head hair that is always in her eyes.
"Did you have a good sleep or a bad sleep? huh, yeah, cause I had a good sleep!" smile-giggle.
I look at the clock and see that I have no grounds to try to stay in bed, it is well after a decent time to sleep until....okay it's 8:45! Good moms are out of bed by this time whipping up pancakes & coffee..... okay- okay, I am up!
It is not that I like to sleep in, because I don't. Beds are not that much fun to stay in alone! (wink-wink).... My husband's internal clock has him out of bed as soon as he wakes up at 6am. And it is not that I like to go to bed, because I don't, I prefer the night times when all good little people are in bed. The thought of another day excites me with possibilities. When I wake I try to grasp that God has handed me another day and says "try this one on for size, I am not done with you yet!". I try to start the day thanking God for the coffee that consumes my brain, the children that want to talk and talk immediately the moment that her eyes are open.....my feet hit the floor and that is when I remember.......
I am a back pain suffer and I hate to get moving and feel the pain again in this new day when while I am asleep or just waking up I feel normal, healed, whole, human... I do not want to complain God has given me a new day, a fresh TODAY and I am up for the smiles, laughter and challenges. Bring it on
So what is it that get you out of bed? I would love to know.......

My sweet little babies cry.... I actually love when she wakes up because I take her back in bed with me and cuddle for awhile:)
A swift kick...no just joking!! I am not a morning person at all! Basically when my husband's home he saunters upstairs and eventually hints that I need to get up! The hint..he brings our 3 year old in bed and says, "get mommy up!"
My three year old. With her little face in mine saying, "The baby's crying!!". Why is he crying? Because she has woken him up.
