6:30am on Saturday

So could someone please, please, please tell me why my daughter feels the need to be up at the crack of dawn on Saturday, but most school days I have to drag her out of bed? As I fell asleep at 1am last night my comforting thought was "Tomorrow's Saturday, I don't have to be anywhere until after noon, I can sleep in a bit." The truth is that my thought of sleeping in is like 7:30 or something, just because I wake up most days at 6:30.

Oh well.

So I thought I might post something interesting. I came across this survey on one of my friends MySpace's. It was for eight years, but I thought I'd tweak it to ten because in less then a month Rob and I celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary. Pretty fun!
