Tuesday's Tribute-sleeping in

Tuesday's Tribute

What is it?
Well, we'll tell you what it is NOT... It's Not About YOU. It's about SOMEONE ELSE. It's our chance, each of us, to shine our light on someone else.

Huh? Whaddya mean?
We each spend a lot of time talking about ourselves and our lives, but we are also fairly GIVING people too...Tuesday's Tribute is a chance to talk about OTHER people, OTHER blogs, OTHER lives.

Now's your chance to shine your light on someone else.

I have some serious angels in my family.

A miracle occurred this morning.

I slept in until 8:45 am.

This has not happened in YEARS. YEARS. Many years.

All made possible by my sister who had half of my kids over for a sleep over and my mother-in-law who took the twins for the night.

Just to be nice.

Here's to you, my miracle workers.

I'm so grateful.

Oh I do love sleeping in. Unfortunately my interal clock does not allow such a thing. I wake with the sun and am always eager to start my day. Even when I want to go back to sleep I just lay there thinking of all the things I'm missing.

Susie said...

Oh, I'm jealous!! Moose thought 6:30 was a good wake-up time. Luckily, he just cuddled for another hour. :) Take a nap, too, if you can!

Hi! So I've been to your blog before (love it btw) but I just found out you're a friend of Heathers! She was my roommate in college! So anyway, I had to come back and say hello!

Jen said...

Oh that is so fabulous!!!! Someday, someday I hope for that too.

Brenda said...

Sleeping in feels like the ultimate pampering. So glad you got to do that today!

Amy said...

Oh how nice! I love sleeping in.

Straight to Your Hart said...

Oh, what wonderful angels. Sleeping in is such pure bliss. Hope you had a splendid nights rest.

I am green. Very green. But underneath that jealousy is some happiness for you- and hope, that someday in my future, I might get to do the same.

Amy said...

That is wonderful news to hear. I love sleep and I am not sure when it will happen for me. I know for sure next month. My little one is going to Grandma's and Grandpa's for a night. Just to let you know my Round Robin is this Friday. Hope you stop by. Have a great day.

Unknown said...

Oh my goodness! That IS a miracle!! How wonderful!

Rhonda said...

Oh, how nice for you!!!

Melissa said...

That's great news.
Yesterday my kids slept in till 10am.
I still don't know why, unless they secretly stayed up and played till late the night before.
I kept checking on them to see if they were still alive.

Shannon said...

FAB.U.LOUS!! That is the biggest treat in the world these days. Here's to more sleeping in mornings...hopefully!

Ed & Jeanne said...

Why the other day, I gave up. See how giving I am?

Rachel Berry said...

Oh you lucky girl! I was just standing at the sink brushing my teeth dreaming of a day when I can sleep in again....seriously. And 8:45 is totally sleeping in for me these days. SO JEALOUS!!
