I don't believe anyone in this house is a morning person. So I don't know why I named this post that. Mornings are annoying in my opinion. I don't like them, and can't recall there ever being a time I did. These pictures were taken "in the morning"...as in 11 am. That's usually about the time all of us have gotten rid of our morning crankies.
My kids are definitely more early birds than I am. I let them be my alarm clock in the mornings, and usually they have us up and at 'em by 8. *Late I know, for some people. So I shouldn't complain. And I know that will all change once we get to a point where we are in school.*
My mom used to wake me up in the mornings by turning on my lights and yelling at me. It used to make me so angry that I probably still have blood-pressure problems. Then after she so rudely awakened the grizzly that is me, she would say "good morning" and expect me to say it back. I'm not the kind of person you say "good morning" too and expect to make it out alive.
I need the appropriate amount of time to wake up before I speak to people. I think my son has definitely inherited this trait. If he wakes up on his own he's fine, but if you
wake him you should probably wear full body armor. I try to be understanding, since, he kind of got it from me. Tirzah seems to be the only family member to have escaped the curse, and wakes up giggling at the world. It's so cute...in the most annoying kind of way.
I am trying to work on this, and my children have definitely helped me. Albeit involuntarily. I realize it's important to be joyful, and to set an example of how a human should behave in the morning, as opposed to a hibernating grizzly. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to say "good morning" without choking. ;)
