Comments for Saturday

Sean on the couchSaturday: 11/17/07

With Ian out of town I was sure I would have to get up at the same time I do on week days. Sean is an early riser, often times getting up at seven even on weekends. Ian usually is the one to get up with the children but of course today he wouldn't be here to do that.

This morning though when I woke up I realized that the room was much to bright for it to be seven. I looked at the clock and it was nine o'clock! At first I didn't hear either child. I couldn't believe for an instant that Sean was still asleep. I listened more carefully and heard quiet foot steps upstairs and the low volume of Saturday morning cartoons.

I peaked my head into the kid's room and there was Harriet just coming around herself. Sean, bless his heart, had snuck upstairs to let Harriet and me sleep in for two blissful hours!

Isn't it great when they do that? Mine do it now, and it's bliss.
