The kids we OK this morning compared to yesterday morning. It has been strange for about the last week. #1, who is so difficult to get out of bed in the morning has been waking up about an hour before I do. He comes out into the front room and quietly watches TV while everyone else sleeps. Sometimes he will eat breakfast out here (the only time he can eat outside of the kitchen is when no one is around, big NO-NO to eat on the new furniture!)
While I haven't had the struggles to get him out of bed in the mornings, the difficulties have shifted. He has started going in and tormenting his brothers and getting them angry and out of sorts. No matter what I tell him, he won't leave them alone. This morning he got mad at me for following him around any time he went towards the back of the house. I was trying to prevent him from enraging his brothers, but he was becoming enraged that I wouldn’t leave him alone.
I can’t win.
At least I don’t have that fight to go through every morning. Having said that I suspect he will go back to being difficult to get out of bed in the mornings tomorrow. Oh well.
