I have exactly 1 minute to update...Cole fell asleep on me while I was working on lesson plans. I guess the boredom go to him. He will wake soon. He really shouldn't nap anymore, even though he's 2 1/2, he needs to stay up all day to be able to sleep through the night, which he does...maybe twice a week. It's taking a toll on us. My eye is twitching again from the lack of sleep!
So, Sebastian spent the night. A little different schedule than his usual. He's usually at Suzi's on Sunday, but because of the mid-winter break and going to Va. we were all screwed up! He's just so-NOT-a-morning-person. I really used to be like that...I can't anymore. I'm not allowed. So, he does it for me. It's hard to get mad, but MAN, it gets under my skin. Breakfast, "the most important meal of the day", for me it's coffee, but for Sebastian, it was starring out the window. I asked if he wanted anything special for breakfast? He stared and said in a weak voice, "yogurt". I thought to myself, this is good. Usually it's nothing. So I open the fridge and read-out what we have: French Vanilla and Blueberry. He looks like I've just kicked him in the head. I ask what's the matter? He says, in a weak voice, " I wanted Strawberry." I closed the fridge and said, "it's up to you, I'm outta here to take a shower, good luck."
Driving him to school it's quiet and I think to myself, is it like this for Suz too?
At our house I wake him up at 7am and then again at 7:05 where i tell him his toaster pastry is ready and then i promptly leave the kitchen and take a shower to let him eat without me around. I think this works out best. I remember my mom was so annoying to me in the morning that i would actually ruin my day if she spoke to me. Now, I am sure that is a bit extreme, and probably I was a bit older and totally into the teenage angst, but still... i remember the feeling! haha
