the value of a good husband!

Mark can be awesome sometimes (and this isn't a suck up, he doesn't read this :P ). Weekdays he gets up at 5am and is out the door at 5.50am. Overnight he regularly bedswaps with the kids and totally deals with the two big monsters every night. Granted I do feed the little guy *all night* too, not undervaluing myself or anything, lol! But not only this, he lets me sleep in every Saturday morning without fail. Like really sleep in. I got out of bed at 10.30am yesterday!! Had been feeding the little one for a few hours of that, but a) I was still in bed and b) He's pretty good but he isn't lactating :P
Our children don't sleep in either. The biggest boy was up at 5am yesterday and the littlest joined him about 5.30. Thankfully one of my children got my non-morning person genes and my princess stayed in bed with me for a few more hours.
So refreshing to have that one day sleep in, usually up at 5.30 myself on the Sunday for work and I have to get up with the kids weekdays when Mark leaves for work.
I do feel for him. I have volunteered to let him have a sleep in one Saturday but, god love him, he refuses.

If only we could get the kids to sleep past 6am!!!

Anyhow, just a brag post really :P
