School Day's Blues

The June school holidays is gone! Waking up before sunrise has resumed for me and the boys today. Jonah was struggling to get up this morning. Hubby who is the night owl has turned the whole family into nocturnal creatures and we didn't wake up till after 10 am during the holidays. From tonight, the boys are going to bed early again :) But I know they will still struggle to wake up the next morning....as usual....

Why is it that the boys are up and about at 6.30am on the weekend but struggle to wake up on school days! I asked the boys this same question when their chatters woke me one beautiful Sunday morning and their replies were, "I don't know mom, I just wake up and can't go back to sleep."

Maybe the thought of schoolwork makes them tired but a whole day of fun ahead keep them excited. I guess I can't blame them because I remembered those days, feeling really tired the moment I changed into my flight attendant's uniform and wished I didn't have to work, LOL!

Hahaha! I can totally understand! Seems like the same way for us. Jude wakes up too early on days we don't want him to, and then rolls around and headbutts us til we wake! Then when we need him to get up early, he cries and refuses to wake up. SIGH!

You should not wake them up one Monday and wait to see what happens. Maybe they wake up by themselves...

Hi MamaJ,

There's so many things in my mind recently, I can't seem to organise my thoughts for the blog. Thanks for your thoughts :)
