Back to alarm clock wake ups

Posted on | August 22, 2007 | 8 Comments

Back to waking up when the sky is stained pink and the birds are loudest. Back to those first blurry moments of dawn, watching my guys sleep nose to nose like racoons. Back to work. And definitely not into the swing of things yet. I’ll resurface soon. Please don’t go away.

Sigh. I have to go back too, next week. But thankfully, not everyday, all day. It will just SEEM like after these langurous weeks with my wee babe.

But being up with sky stained pink…it’s a beautiful thing.

Me too. We teachers, back to the grindstone. Just got back from the honeymoon yesterday and tomorrow I start to train at the new school. How did this happen?
