Swing sets and slides mixed with jumping on beds and laughing with watermelon stained faces make for kids who come into the kitchen before bedtime and tell me "Chelle, it's bedtime now." Not that I'm complaining in the least, but I do not know how parents do it 24/7. Seriously, I finally understand those horrible children leashes. Three children are slightly terrifying to keep track of, quite tiring, and I did not have a 9 o'clock bedtime.
I guess I can't possibly be as tired as I suspected though, because it's 5 o'clock in the morning and sleep still doesn't seem like a possibility. The birds seemed to get plenty of sleep, and now that they are awake, at least I have some company. But the sky is starting to get lighter, and I just stepped out onto the roof. Pretty soon I will be a pro at removing the window, and no noise will be required.
This is what summer is supposed to feel like. Free and simple. If only the past two mornings could be combined, this would be the perfect morning. Add this to the list of reasons I love summer.
Peace.
