Rise and Shine

Unforunately, the kids and I have our first cold of the season. When I got back to Julie's at lunchtime yesterday, I put Isaac down for his nap and took some cold medication. We usually have "quiet time" after lunch when I turn off the lights and let the older kids watch television. Yesterday I sat in the recliner rocking Ingrid to sleep while Henry, Elena, and Evie watched the movie "Robots." The medicine, rocking, and darkness had an effect, because at some point I fell asleep and remained that way until the end of the movie when I awoke to Henry's face in front of mine as he told me in a sing-song voice, "Wakey, wakey, eggs and bakey!"
