Just Shoot Me

The ratio of morning people to non-morning people in our house used to be 2:1. The 2 being the ladies, the 1 being one very tolerant male. Scott was always a good sport - getting roused to go to an early breakfast, gamely putting on clothes to take a walk, even getting up to go run errands or go somewhere.

The ratio of morning people to non-morning people in our house is now 1:2. One being the almost 4 foot bundle of energy that wakes at the crack of dawn every morning, ready to dance, sing at the top of her lungs, eat immediately, go somewhere... The one convert to slugdom has been me - the large, unwieldy, sluggish, grower of two humans that always seems to be missing 4 hours of sleep somewhere. I now have a much greater appreciation for Scott's sacrifices.

This is what we were treated to the other morning:

Grown-ups wake up slow, but chril-dren wake up fast! Wake up! Wake up! Let's go to Rudy's and get breakfast tacos! Can you play with me?! Watch me dance! Wake up! Wake up! God made a nice day out there! It's time to see it!

If I ever turn back into that person, just shoot me...
