This is one of the first mornings in a long time that at least one of my kids didn’t get up at or before the time that I got out of the shower. I have a few minutes to myself, this morning. I know that I have to go wake them up soon so they will not be late for school, but in this little bit of quiet time I find myself wondering what to do.
It is funny how my goal is always to be up early enough to have some quiet time to myself in the morning before the hectic rush to feed and dress my kids and prepare them for school, but I don’t know what to do when I get it. I am sure the answer is that this is because the morning with the kids is my routine and not the quiet time. If I could manage to have mornings with quiet time become the routine, I know I would find plenty of ways to fill it.
Maybe that would include writing here more regularly.
For now, my quiet time is over. I have to go wake up the kids. Only 15 school days left!
