Early Morning Practice.

The time change has been KILLING me!  For me, getting up before the kids, has helped us all have a great attitude to start our day.  However, we havn’t  gotten back to our early morning rhythm.

Before Christmas, I was up, showered, exercised, spent time with God and gotten my head about me before our day began.  It was lovely.  Hard to do, but worth it 100 times over in the way I approached my day.  Our homeschool week this week has been less than smooth and I have had to really be on top of my attitude with the kids.  Practice speaking gently, consistently instead of short and snippy.

I love that it is staying light later, but can we just keep it one way all the time, so that Mom’s and Dad’s with kids do not have to take 2 months of reworking things to get back to “normal”?  It is different now that our kids are older.  Instead of just putting them to bed at 7 we hear “WHAT! That is impossible it is still the middle of the day!”

I am starting a petition! Who is with me?
