Who wouldn't like to wake up to this?


Keegan used to be a homebody come bedtime. He didn't mind to come to Mamawland to play, eat and hang out, but come bedtime - it was time to go home. This was frustrating for me, who wanted him to stay and for Andi and Big Guy, who had many plans foiled by his insistence to go to Bippity Bop to sleep.

All that has changed in the last few months. I don't know if he finally figured out that Sophie was having lots of fun without him or what, but he is now with the program when it comes to spending the night here.

He calls several times a week to inquire if his lodging plans for the evening include Mamawland and I think he's finally determined that this is an allright place to have his waffles and chocolate milk in the morning.

On a side note, Jacob saw the title of this post and asked, "Are you writing about me waking you up last night?" Well, I wasn't, but I will. It was about 3:15 or so when I hear a voice whispering in my ear....."Mom, mom, mom" I grudgingly awake to hear this, "Promise you won't ever turn me into Oscar the Grouch."

So I guess I could ask the same question to that experience -- "Who wouldn't want to wake up to this?" and get a whole different answer.
