The Gallery - Morning

This weeks theme for the Gallery is 'Morning'. As soon as I read that I knew which picture I would use, (yes another picture of one of my children, sorry about that).

I am not a morning person by any stretch, infact as far as I'm concerned mornings are the work of the Devil. However with having kids I have, inevitably, had to get use to them. 
The best thing for me in the mornings now is hearing Lj's little voice calling "Mummy, Mummy" from the confines of her cot. I then go into her room to find her standing upright with a big beaming smile because she is so happy to see you. With all her hair stuck to her face with snot and dribble from the night before. Lovely! She then puts her arms up for a cuddle and tucks herself in under my chin and won't let go, just so she can catch up on any cuddles she's missed during the 12 or so hours that she's been asleep.



It's moments like that, that remind you what being a Mummy is all about.

  2. So adorable, I always look forward to greeting my son in the morning. He's in a toddler bed now, so he comes into our room to say hello and ask for his boobie milk lol.

  3. I remember the days when my little one held his arms out for me in the morning. He's 16 now, so I have to grab him when he's passing!

  5. You are right. They are so cute in the morning. Keep her in her cot for as long as possible as it's not so cute when they can dictate what time your morning starts!

  11. Hi Gina,
    Lovely take on the theme. My two little ones (12 and 9) still come for morning cuddles (when they find me still in bed!) and evening stories. It's a precious time and ends quickly. Enjoy!
