breakfast in bed - sort of

Happy New Year! We are shattered today. Stayed up late and then got up really early because the kids woke up at 6:30. ugh. Sim is pretty sick. So, by the afternoon, we were all a bit tired and tetchy. Sim took a nap and we sent a grumpy Ro to his room to read books. Then, we zonked out on the couch. After an hour or so, I heard him in the kitchen and then saw him dragging his stool back to the bathroom. I got up to see what he was doing. He says, " Mommy, Go back to sleep. I get you water and breakfast of yogurt and you'll feel better. Go back to sleep." He ushered me back to the couch and I laid down and listened to him rummage in the silverware drawer and cabinets and refrigerator. He came back and positioned an alarm clock near the couch. Then, he set glasses of water and bowls of yogurt next to me and Daddy. Right next to us, somewhat precariously balanced on the couch. One false move and yogurt and water would've been all over the couch. Then, he quietly told us to wake up. Then, he said, "Mommy! Daddy! You need to eat your breakfast and have more energy. You need a break. Do you like water and yogurt for breakfast?" Then, he urged us to eat and drink so we could get treats from the treasure chest. It was very cute. Everyone was in a much better mood afterwards.
