Walking up at six thirty
In the morning
To the sound of my daughter’s voice
In the monitor
Telling me to come wake her up
So we can watch TV
And play characters
After we eat our bagels
That Mumma prepares
(Love is the secret ingredient)
A few minutes after
She joins us in the living room
And then goes back to bed
Because our kiddo
Wants a little more Dada time
And anyway I can nap later
I’m sure
But for now
This is the best breakfast
