Mom....you just rest awhile.....

[BuffyStiles]

As I awoke this morning to the scuttle of feet and whispers,  I realized a new day had begun! All of my kids had decided to "let" me sleep in on a school day. Their intentions were good.  However, I ran around the house like a chicken with its head cut off, trying to get everyone ready before getting them off to school on time.

 WOW.... I love extra sleep but not at the expense of having to run around the house at mach 2 to catch up on lost time!

My kids have seen me working pretty late these past few weeks  working on my computer, designing new pages for my home business website, etc. They must have thought I really needed some extra sleep!

Kids are so intuitive it is amazing. While us parents think we are holding it "all" together, multi-tasking, working hard at home or away, our kids are noticing it. My kids just know when I have had enough... I either start crying or just blast out in frustration.... however, I didn't do that yesterday. It must have been the big bags under my eyes and the "I'm so exhausted look on my face" that gave them the clue that I needed the "extra" sleep.

 I love my kids so much and am glad they gave me that little extra bit of R&R.... I obviousy needed it and I do feel so much better!
