A stolen hour or half hour of sleep on the weekend is delicious.
I’ve never been much of a morning person and luckily (touch wood) my kids tend to wake up around 7.30. I can cope with that. But on the weekend I still love a sleep in.
To help grab a few more winks I often leave out some craft materials or invitation to play for the kids to discover in the morning. Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn’t. But on the mornings it does I feel super lucky.
And some mornings I hear my son helping his sister with breakfast and even getting dressed. She can do these things herself, but still likes us to help her, so I am very appreciative that he does this.
The outfits they may chose might be rather different ~ she has a bit of a shorts over leggings thing going on right now! Or they may stay in pyjamas half the day {with ‘weapons’ tucked down their tops}…
And the house may feel more ‘well played in’ when I get up, but this is a small thing when I get those stolen winks.
How do you manage to grab some extra sleep?
Happy days
Kelly
