I am not a morning person. Ask my husband. His best bet is to just steer clear of me until I've had some caffeine. I get along okay as long as I don't have to speak to anyone. My brain is not awake, and it takes way too much energy to form words.
Having kids has made this more difficult. Parenting requires so much TALKING. They are constantly asking questions. Lately I've found myself telling Nate, "Shh, Mama doesn't like talking in the morning." Which only leads to more questions. This is a conversation from a few mornings ago.
Me: (tripping) Ow
Nate: What happened?!
Me: Nothing
Nate: What happened, mama? Why did you say ow? Did you hurt yourself?
Me: Sigh. I tripped.
Nate: Oh! What did you trip over?
Me: Nothing, Nate.
Nate: What was it, mama?
Me: ....
Nate: Mama! What did you trip over?
Me: A ball, Nate!
Nate: A ball? Oh ... was it that blue ball?
Me: Yeah
Nate: Yes, or no?
Me: Oh my gosh, YES!
Nate: .......... Did you say a ball or a bowl?
Me: SHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Nate: Why do you say shhh? Is Georgia sleeping?

I'm totally the same way....and similar conversation takes place in my house pretty much every morning!!!
That is laugh out loud hilarious!
Oh, I can so relate. I don't like anyone to talk to me until I have had my coffee and Benjamin is in a very bad habit of waking up about 2 seconds after I get up in the morning. And I've had very similar conversations with Caleb. The joy of kids :)
hahahahaha!!! Crack up! That is so hilarious yet absolutely would exhaust me as well! I guess I should try to enjoy Jet now while he only knows "momma" and "dada". ;)
That made me laugh out loud!! ;)
So funny! I'm completely opposite...LOVE mornings...cranky in the evenings. ;)
That's hillarious!
