8:20 a.m.

today it was my morning to get up with serena {sean and i trade off}.

i woke up this morning.

i hadn't heard serena yet.

the sun was streaming through our window.

i checked the clock.

8:00.

8:00!

this girl is usually up at 6:30!

i went downstairs {without having to}, got a drink, sat on the couch, and read my book for a few minutes. it was pure heaven.

it only lasted for 20 minutes, but it was pure heaven.

i can't remember the last time i woke up on my own. even when it's sean's turn to get up with her, i usually just lay in bed half-awake for an hour until serena decides it's time to come upstairs and jump on the bed.

i hope she will do this a few more times before we have a newborn to keep us up all night :)
