This is so true and then the kids pull you back into reality.

I think that this kind of thing happens only every once in a while. Not the getting up early part. But that rare snippet of time when we are given – and take advantage of – the opportunity to appreciate those beautiful moments. Good for you, Jenny, for taking it in and really appreciating it. And thank you for sharing!

Wow, I never heard an early morning described so beautifully.

I may have to try getting up earlier.

(We’ll see.)

I love this. I SO wish I were a morning person so I could appreciate beautiful mornings like that. This morning I was up at 5 a.m. for a 6:45 meeting. The mad rush to preschool, then work included no appreciation whatsoever.

This is why I try to get up an hour before everyone else in this house. I like my quiet time.

The early morning used to be my best time of day but now, after being up that early everyday for so long…I’m not so sure.

Copious amounts of caffiene do help though.

Amen. In the early morning light, anything is possible. It is a new day.

And at the end of the day, I laugh at my optimism.

So…you’re saying maybe I should drag myself out of bed a little earlier?
