Okay, this isn't the most important reason . . . not even close. But it's one of those little moments that make you say to yourself, "hmmm, I'm sooo glad I don't have kids."It's called SLEEPING IN! Or as the British call it, "a good LIE IN."
It's Saturday, and the weekends are wonderful for this. I'm not much of a morning person. I take that back. During the week, I like to get up early and get things done....get all of the work out of the way. But I try to get as much of my work done as possible before the weekend so that I can just do whatever I want then....which includes sleeping in.
I was awoken this morning at 9:45 a.m. not by screaming kids or cartoons blaring but by my DH (who IS a morning person) who came back into the bed to cuddle for a bit and tell me that breakfast is almost ready. Got to love that man.
I really don't understand how parents do it.....or why they want to do it. Getting up early on a Saturday morning to drive your offspring around to whatever practices or activities they are involved in, and then sitting through the mind-numbing practices or activities, and then driving them back seems, well, not so fun. I'd much rather be in my warm, soft bed, and leisurely get my day started.

I'm with 'ya! I am not so much a "sleeping-in" person as I a napping person. I've been off all week and almost every day I have taken a 1-2 hour nap. I don't know a single person with kids who can do that.
