Dreams Do Come True

It finally happened. The day that all parents dream about and think will never come. It happened to us. Today.

Thing 1 and Thing 2 woke up way too early for a weekend, as is their normal routine. But instead of coming into our room and waking us up to ask us to turn on cartoons, Thing 1 ... did it ... HERSELF!

I've wondered for some time now why we can't pry them from their beds with a crowbar on school days at 7am, but on weekends, they're up - on their own - at the crack of dawn. It simply defies reason. A perfectly good day to sleep in is wasted on their need for Scooby Doo or SpongeBob. It's senseless really.

But our day of blissful weekend sleep, the day we previously only dreamed about, finally came true. Ahhh!
