WTF: Sleeping In

It's 6:48am. I've been awake since 5:30. The kids, however, are asleep. I literally can not remember the last time they slept this "late". Usually Parker wakes up first, starts rolling around and sighing. This wakes up Elizabeth and then they both wake up Miranda, who, had she her own room, would sleep much, much later every day. This usually happens between 5:45 and 6:15 on most mornings, extending to 6:30 on rare lucky days. We tried to have them stay in their room until 6:30 or 7, but that wasn't so successful and sometimes it just easier to get them up and out than listen to fighting at 6am in the morning. I'm usually at boot camp at this hour, but this week I've been letting them come hang out with me upstairs in bed until 7 or so with Parker making tracks and the others goofing off. Every morning I wish I could go back to sleep while they play, but I never can.

But today, the day daddy gets home, they sleep and I'm can't.
