Morning Prayer

Our room is arranged so the bed is tucked into one corner. The headboard is against one wall and the side of the bed is against another. One side of the bed has open floor space. That is the side Dave sleeps on. I sleep by the wall.

This morning when I woke up, there was a dog between me and the free floor space. She was being more than a little stubborn and didn't want to move. I told Dave this must mean I was supposed to stay in bed and he was supposed to put the kids on the bus.

Carter was just coming out of the bathroom and has a wonderful ability to hear anything anyone says. His response? "What about morning prayer??" He sounded just appalled I would skip the opportunity for morning prayer to sleep in.
