Some Day

Some day, some day soon, I would like to be the one who gets to sleep in and pretend I don't hear, in this order:

- the dog whining because she needs to pee after being in her crate all night

- the cats crying because they are hungry

- the boys whispering in our doorway, deciding to let us sleep (AMEN)

- the little girl asking for her morning sippy and a snuggle, and oh - a report that she wet the bed

Some day the house will be quiet and I'll remember these days with a wistful smile.  Right now I'd just like an extra hour or so of sleep.
