Nesting

Rhys is an early riser.  He has been for years.  I get up at 0500.  He usually beats me to the day.  If he comes into our room in the middle of the night I will take him back to bed.  If he comes in after 0430, Mama will let him cuddle with her.

Rhys has come up with a new solution for those times when he is not sure what time it is.  He pulls a blanket up and makes himself a little nest on the floor at the foot of our bed. 

He has scared the dickens out of me a few times.  The alarm goes off.  I get up.  I head towards the stairs to let the dogs out and I hear "Hi Daddy!"  As chipper as can be.  The adrenalin helps get me going in the morning.
