Saturday morning

Daddy always let’s me sleep in on the weekends. He tells the kids to not bother me and I normally get an extra hour of sleep. This morning Daddy got up to let Duncan out. I heard someone else get up and go in the bathroom and then they headed downstairs. I assumed it was John. He is my early riser and normally gets up and goes to find Daddy. I rolled over and tried to fall back asleep. Then I heard Gillian said “But I can’t find him anywhere!” She came in my room and I said “Who?” Then I heard John say “Daddy, his car is still here but I can’t find him!” Gillian climbed into bed with me and said “He’s gone. I can’t find Daddy!” I told them “Daddy is probably in the bathroom downstairs. Don’t worry he isn’t missing.” So they both climbed into my bed and John said “Gilly woke me up. Cause she could find Daddy.” Gilly said “Yup. Cause it’s morning. Mommy, are you getting up now? See it’s morning!” I may have lost my bonus hour of sleep but I got some early morning giggles and snuggles with two of my favorite people.
