Laying in bed...

I suppose to truly understand my blog, you would have to know some back story on my life... That is a book to be written at a later date.  For now I will just write and try to make my stories easy for you to jump into, like a good soap.

This morning, 7am, laying in bed, my boyfriend's ridiculous alarm screaming "HOAH!" over and over, I roll over and snuggle into the fetal position not yet ready to greet the day.  I feel Marcus slide out of bed after silencing the piercing noise, and almost immediately after the
 sound diminishes I hear the sound of the chaos that is my life starting to begin the day.

My daughter stirs in her crib making slight squeals of excitement to find that it is finally morning, I sigh, still not ready to start my work week.  I hear her door push open and a kind voice whispers, "what are you doing sweetie pie?"  A squeal of excitement fills the room as Marcus lifts Kamryn from her crib.  Digging through the drawers, they find a suitable outfit for her to wear and off they go into the kitchen.  

Still in bed, with Kami already partly ready for the day is a great 
feeling.  

A cold nose burrows under the comforter.

"Toby, ok ok let's go outside," I grumble to my mischievous Bichon.  Not far behind comes Thumper, his partner in crime, a Lhasa Apso.  As I begin to shift my body under the covers, 
ready to slip out into the cool morning air...

"Come on guys let's go outside!"

Again Marcus to the rescue.

I smile, relaxing my legs into the warm mattress again.

Finally I pull myself out of bed after a few more moments of relishing the morning under the covers. 
 
My nose is filled with the sweet smell of breakfast cooking.  Entering the kitchen, I find Kami with her cheeks stuffed with french toast.  A big smile emerges between the plump cheeks and I can't help but laugh.

Soon Marcus is making his way for the door, heading to work.  Smile and give him a kiss and think to myself...

"this one's a keeper"
