I can't remember the last time I had a morning to myself. Emma is off to school and Jason is on his way to work. I am showered, fed and am sipping hot cocoa on this snowy cold morning - alone. Except for the noise from the hamster wheel, it is peacefully quiet in this house right now. The dogs are all cozy and sleeping (again). The reason for this peace and quiet and my ability to relax for a moment for the first time in years - OLIVIA IS STILL SLEEPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I almost don't know what to do with myself. There are so many things that I should and could do, but it has been so long since she has slept this late I am just giddy with laziness. My un-motivation continues this week - why mess with a good thing. There's something about cold, snowy days that just don't make me say 'come on Olivia, we're going out!'. Taking her out to the store, mall or wherever when it's like this is such a task and from what I can tell, it isn't her most favorite thing to do. Her dream day is staying in her jammies and trying on all of her socks with different pairs of shoes. Who am I to argue with that?
So, here I sit, in my cozy home, listening to the peaceful and wonderful sound of my baby still sleeping. It is a great start to the day.
