Embrace the Camera {Mornings with Samuel}

Samuel has piano lessons early, early in the morning once a week.  When we started morning lessons, at first I let him sleep as late as he could, and drag him out of bed at the very last minute.  He would get there and yawn through his lesson.  Then when I mentioned breakfast before, just him and me, he perked up.  That next morning, when I gently shook his shoulder to wake him, he popped out of bed into his clothes, ready to go.  And he was more ready for his lesson.  It's been a fun tradition for us.  And definitely worth losing a little sleep over.  







And you can always catch up on sleep later on in the day.
Love spending these mornings with you, Samuel.

What a darling! I love that you took the opportunity to spend some quality time together. I'm planning to start a weekly 'date' with my older daughter just so we can spend some time alone which I feel she needs.
