I often wonder at my ability to fool myself. As I sit here now, about to go to bed, I am sure that I will wake up extra early to tidy up the kitchen etc. before waking the kids...yet I know that there is an equal chance that I will instead hit the snooze many times, be running late & bellowing for us to huuuuurrrrrry!!!
Tonight my middle son, clearly a realist, requested that his oatmeal be prepared and waiting before I wake him so that he can eat right away and without being rushed...
note to self: get it together, lady!

I am down the hill having the very same thoughts. I promised middle child chocolate/banana vegan muffins in the morning. I am too tired to bake right now so morning it is. I am thinking about moving the alarm clock to the other side of the room. Good night beautiful.
I wish I could get it together to give the girls something other than cheerios, raisins and bananas for breakfast! Maybe I should get up earlier, too! Oh and Nanda Mama -- I want the recipe for the chocolate/banana vegan muffins, please!!!
oh - did I give the impression I was hand cutting the oatmeal or something? it's instant. and contains fake sugar dinosaur eggs. not vegan, not baked. The middle one won't eat real oatmeal...
Elizabeth - the others ate cheerios today - you are in good company! ;-)
Nice to know I am not the only one....I laughed so hard at your response that my teenager overheard and asked what was so funny. She wants to know where you buy the oatmeal with the dinosaur eggs!
Ha - you are SO not the only one! And tell your kid, Pathmark or Target or Kings - I tend to buy a few boxes when I find them - they box is a dark green...bon appetit! ;-)
^ that was by me! NOT meant to be anonymous!
