You know those Saturday mornings when a parent (delusional parent) dreams of sleeping in a little later, enjoying a relaxing cup of coffee and just having a lazy morning? Yep, I still have those dreams....just not the reality.
Not complaining because in exchange for missing out on this particular dream, Mike and I are treated to dancing, singing and yelling in the kitchen from Eli. His favorite morning song? "I'M HUNGRY, I'M HUNGRY!" I feed the dogs, now it's MY TURN!" or variations of this theme.
One of the discussions Mike and I had when we were talking about adopting at our ages with the girls almost on their own, centered around what were we planning for the next 25 years. As I sit in my kitchen this morning listening to "full volume Eli" I did not contemplate this particular activity. Still glad we didn't miss out on it even though we occasionally reminisce about sleeping in.
