I am not a morning person

C woke up this morning about 6:45am. After convincing him to let me rest another 15 minutes we got up at 7am. I know this is a typical scenario for many parents, some start even earlier. For me, however, this was way too early. We are practically nocturnal in this house; we've even come up with our own phrase to distinguish between morning and late enough in the morning to bother getting up.

wake up morning

7am is not wake up morning time.

I knew someone in college who felt ill if he stayed in bed past 7:30am in the morning.

I would need an IV of coffee to make it through my day if I had to get out of bed before 9am most days.

Thank goodness I was blessed with three night owls and this morning is an anomaly in our daily lives
