Morning Chaos

The children are slowly waking up from their slumber. First, Nathan. Actually, he usually the very first in the family. He makes his bed before leaving his room. So efficient and responsible. Then, sometimes Rachel. She walks downstairs with her big girl blankie wanting to snuggle and find a "breakfast buddy" which switches day to day. Allan and Joshua are woken up by me. Allan packs his football bag and and backpack and heads downstairs to eat. Emily is usually last but when she is early, she is wearing her favorite clothing combinations. Then it is time to eat breakfast and pack lunches. The kitchen usually looks like a tornado hit it by the time all of the kids have left.
