I am determined to remain a "morning person"

Many of you are probably laughing at the drastic turn my mornings have taken.

What they USED to be:

Wake up, make my morning latte, get my muffin out, say my prayers, read my Bible, check email, loose track of time on the computer emailing and face booking.......

My mornings NOW:

One of the twins talking loudly (and usually happily) in the crib. Open the kids bedroom door. Three wide awake kids.'Good Morning' greetings to each.

J immediately starts talking. Well, actually, asking. While I start changing diapers and getting everyone dressed and groomed.

'Mom, what are we having for breakfast?'
'Mom, can we have waffles?'
'Mom, have the kids left for school?'
'Mom, where's Dad?'
'Mom, is the sun coming up or going down?'
'Mom, can I do a puzzle?'
'Mom, can I play my game?'
'Mom, can I watch cartoons?'
'Mom, look at me!!!!'
'Mom, look, look, look at what I'm doing!!!'
'Mom, what are you making?'
'Mom, what's that?'

Please don't misunderstand. I love being a Mom. I promise. It's just kind of funny that I LONGED to hear the word "Mom" for so long.... and.....now...... well, er.... Can I just say that sometimes I wish that...

eversinglepossiblesentenceandquestionandstatement did not have to start with "MOM???"

There. I said it. :)

This morning after the first ten questions, I let J know that there would be no more questions until after breakfast. I said we can have CONVERSATION, but, NO questions. I gave him conversation topics to help him along. For example:

'It sure looks like it's going to be a beautiful day!'

and

'Mom, you look gorgeous.'

I thought those were great starters.
