Coming back from a two week break to the school/work routine has been brutal in our house. We've all groaned when the alarm rings in the wee hours of dawn. There has been much weeping, wailing, and nashing of teeth. Each morning I've pulled Abbie half-awake body out of bed and helped her get dressed because she remains in a near-comatose state. There has been excessive clinging at school drop offs, and drooping tired eyes at school pick-ups.
So why is it that on Saturday, the one day we've been waiting for to sleep in a little BOTH children are up at 6:30, earlier than they get up for school, and happy, cheerful,* and ready for the day?
*I'm not complaining about having happy, cheerful children I just don't understand why it had to be at 6:30 on a Saturday morning rather than during the week.

Wow...that is EXACTLY what happens at our house with Mackenzie. Don't you love it? :)
It's because they know it is a play day and not a work/school day! :) It still is harder to get up on a weekday than it is on a weekend even at my old age! Good luck with this week.
