Early Mornings
… are not really my style. But ever since we moved Sandy to 7:30 AM class, I had no choice but to wake up at 7AM. I trained Sandy to sleep early and all that but it’s always the same every morning. She has trouble opening her eyes and sometimes wouldn’t even budge no matter how loud I turn on the TV. I feel bad for her to be experiencing this so soon. I didn’t hate school when I was a kid but I loathed waking up so early I find myself looking forward to weekends. Come to think of it, we all look forward to weekends regardless of age!
Anyway, I was happy last night because Sandy just finished her exams and now has a two-day off. I knew she’d take advantage and wake up late so I spent hours last night watching Step Up 2 and reading my ebook. But she didn’t. At exactly 7:10 AM, I could hear her saying “mommy, mommy” and when she couldn’t wake me up, she started tossing and turning it would be impossible to continue sleeping. To summarize, I told her to please watch her show while I catch some more sleep. Only I wasn’t able to because the TV was on and I kept thinking about work piling up.
Now I’m close to having another cup of coffee just to function properly. If there’s one good thing about Sandy’s early schedule though, it’s that she takes 2-3 hour naps in the afternoon now. She’s much happier and more active. Plus she eats like a horse we have to make sure her ‘snacks cabinet’ has enough for one week.
