get up earlier to make the most of the day, and my life

I am lucky enough to be able to stay up late and sleep in late. Why begrudge myself this? I am lucky to be able to do this. Now when school starts again the story will be different. Maybe then I’ll re-adopt this goal.

my Michael had woke me up to spend 7 minutes with him before he left for work this morning. I was grouchy. He asked me what I wanted. I replied: I want you to kiss me as you are walking out the door and let me sleep for 45 more minutes. What if that had been the last minute I had seen him? What if that had been the last thing he’d wanted was 7 minutes with me before he left for good? I don’t want to miss those moments. I don’t want to have regrets when it comes to spending time with the people I love and who love me.

have done an awesome job of this this week! It has paid off in more ways then I can count but I’ll try.
1. More time with my husband before the day gets too busy. The coffee has NEVER tasted better!
2. All the little things that ALWAYS make me run late? They didn’t!
3. Having time with the kids to review their spelling and math homework before they went to school. Priceless!
4. Having the time to actually make myself feel presentable before rushing out of the door? Yeahhhhhh!
