LOL!!!!!
Speaking of getting up in the am - hubby let me sleep in this morning - I can only imagine what my child looks like - clothing isn't a problem, she wears the same type outfit everyday - it's the hair.
Of course my sleeping in didn't last long - the dog started pawing at the door at 7:45 - I bet hubby was barely out of the driveway when that started.
