Project 52, Week 27 Change in Perspective

Life is as abundant as you make it my girl.
You can choose to see all that is wrong, messed up, or hurt.
Or you can choose to see the beauty, joy, and heartfelt.
Every day is a choice.
I have never been a morning person, no matter how much I tell myself, ‘I’d get so much done!’
I just don’t move well in the morning, never have.
You on the other hand seem to be wide awake at 6am!
It has taken all of my energy to smile and be excited to start another day when I’m waking far earlier then I’d like.
I’ve tried getting you to snuggle in bed…not happen’n
I’ve tried rocking…ha!
It wasn’t until I realized I had to be bright eyed at 6am that things got easier!
Instead of dreading and feeling like I didn’t get enough sleep, I accepted that I would be getting up a 6am.
That one change in perspective was just what I needed.
I do wish to sleep in, but I don’t dread not sleeping past 6 anymore.
We start our day and have found a slow paced morning routine that works for both of us.
Coffee and breakfast followed by some stretching while you play jungle gym on me.
It’s incredible how much joy you can find when you stop complaining.
Someday, when you’re a teenager sleeping the days away, I’ll miss waking at 6 to play.
ps. feel free to sleep in any day you’d like. 😉
xoxo – Your Mama
