Day 13: Night Owl
Savitri loves to stay up late. Even with two kids, one a baby, I just can’t go to bed early. It’s been something I’ve done since college – at least that I can remember of – and still continues. It’s not good for me but it’s hard to break. Most nights I’ll go to bed at around midnight. Other nights, maybe once on a weekday, it’ll be 1 or 2 a.m. I think now it’s more of a relaxation thing than anything else. Everybody’s in bed and night time is my time to do whatever. It’s so peaceful!!
I do though love to sleep in and very grateful that my two kids love sleeping in too. While Drew can’t sleep past 8 a.m. (unless he slept really late or he just got to bed at 7 a.m.) us girls can sleep the morning away. My grandpa hated it. He’d wake me up at 7 a.m. on my school breaks or weekends. Before I had Jovie, M and I could sleep until 11 a.m. with Jovie, the max was 9:30 a.m. Here’s a funny story, Christmas 2008 we had to wake M up 3 times. I mean which kid does not want to get up on Christmas morning?
