First Day Jitters
The bus is scheduled to arrive at 7:14am. Connor’s alarm got him up at 6am, as planned, and he’s currently upstairs getting ready for his first day of Junior High.
I was up at 5:40am, before my alarm and an hour before I usually wake up.
Status: Being Awakened
I realized this morning that when my cat paws at the bedsheet, he’s not trying to climb under the covers and snuggle with me.
Nope, he’s trying to pull down the sheet so I’ll get out of bed.
Status: Combing My Son’s Hair
Yet another unexpected parenting moment: explaining to my pre-teen son how to wash his shoulder-length hair in the shower without getting it tangled.
Yes, son, I had hair much longer than yours for the first 30-plus years of my life. I know a thing or two about hair care. 🤣
Fragrant
I cooked with Ethiopian spices for the first time yesterday. This morning, my kitchen still smells exotic and delicious.
