GOOD MORNING SUNSHINE

by hurricanevanessa on August 4, 2009

One of the great perks of motherhood is that I am up, every morning, in time to enjoy this:

The view from my front door, at the crack of dawn

The view from my front door, at the crack of dawn. Worth getting up for.

Unfortunately, while, I am up in time for the glorious sunrise, I rarely GET to enjoy the glorious sunrise, because I am The Mommy and I am urgently required to watch this:

I'd rather be looking at mountains.

I'd rather be looking at mountains.

I hate children’s TV.

And then I come into work and think about …this:

"Oh! So YOU'RE the children's mother! What do you do for a living?"

"Oh! So YOU'RE the children's mother! What do you do for a living?"

Does the combination of highly contrasting elements in my life make me interesting, or bonkers, I wonder, on a day when they do not seem to so much as co-exist, but collide? Or am I just a mother? All mothers juggle, after all.

I would ask the Guru for his take on the matter, but he, being The Parent Who Is Not A Mother, is fast asleep, snoring peacefully, under a nice warm duvet.
