Walking Towards the Train in the Tunnel

One of my kids is an excellent sleeper and the other one is Alexis. That excellent sleeper has been excellenting muchly all during the Christmas break. While she is a Grade A Night Owl, she makes up for it by sleeping late.

Super late.

I've woken Mila up at 10:00 multiple times in the past week. As in, she would have slept later, but I decided that was the line.

That's swell and all, but tomorrow we return to the real world. I'm going to need to wake her up FOUR hours earlier than she's now used to waking up. FOUR.

It's going to hurt. There are going to be lots of tears. Some of them might even be Mila's.

Thoughts and prayers, kids. I'm going to need them.
