Unfortunately,
my 3 small early birds just do not understand this. I try to suggest to the
girls that they could sleep in on Saturdays but they are still up by 7am. The
Country Boy is also an early bird. Very occasionally he will sleep till 7.30am.
On Sundays he gets up extra early to go for a jog - crazy!

Sometimes
on weekends, if we have nothing on, I will get to sleep in till 8 or 8.30, but
it is still not a "proper" sleep in.
I tell
myself that it will even out one day. One day the kids will be teenagers who
will want to stay up all night and sleep all day too…. Perhaps I will enjoy not
sleeping in while I can.
Mr7 will now stay in bed and read until 8am on weekends. Hallelujah! Mr4 will sleep until then if left to his own devices - three days of preschool and various activities simply wears him out. It does get easier!
ReplyDeleteI am the same! I have had to train myself to go to bed at around 10:30, because if I'm not in bed by then I am likely to stay up until 1 or 2! And like you say, it's not like the kids are kind and sleep in the next morning!
