6:30 AM // Once again I’m up at the same time as Liam. We start by making and eating breakfast together; he has some eggs with me today. 6:55 AM // Settle down to do my Bible reading with Liam. 7:10 AM // Meredith is up with us now. The kids start telling each other silly stories and having Alexa play random songs and dancing. I’m not even annoyed that they are interrupting me because they are so cute. 7:30 AM // I talk to David for awhile – he is not feeling well. The kids watch TV. 7:50 AM // Get dressed for church and get the kids ready. Say bye to David and leave for church. 8:35 AM…

6:10 AM // Wake up at the same time as Liam. It’s hard for me to wake up before the kids on the weekends! I have another headache this morning so I first make and eat breakfast so I can take some medicine. I turn on Wild Kratts for Liam and give him some toast to eat. 6:30 AM // Meredith is up now too, so I get her some cereal. I go to try to get my Bible reading done. 7:00 AM // The kids are in my space and annoying me, so I go to my room but Liam finds me there.

5:00 AM // Since I went to bed so early last night it is easy for me to wake up with my alarm today! The kids are sleeping soundly and I go straight to my Bible reading. I also skim the day’s Magnificat entry. For the first time all week I feel rested and I don’t have a headache. 5:50 AM // I make myself breakfast and pack Meredith’s lunch. 6:07 AM // I eat at the table, then move back to my chair. I was going to read, but Liam comes out to cuddle. He is very interested in the cover of my book and says he wants to “look for baby Jesus.” Meredith comes out shortly, so she…

3:18 AM // I wake up because my head hurts. Ughhh. I have had this same headache for three days now! I’m able to get back to sleep though. 5:00 AM // My alarm goes off but I turn it off. I’m not feeling it today. 5:11 AM // Liam wakes up and asks me what day it is. He always wants to know that lately. Thankfully he goes right back to sleep. 5:25 AM // I drag myself out of bed. I sit down to my Bible reading, but I doze off a few times. Eventually I complete it, but I probably should have made coffee first. 6:00 AM // Make my breakfast and listen to the pray-as-you-go podcast….
