A New Morning Routine

The first days after coming home were really hard on our internal clocks. Katie was usually asleep by 6:30 and was ready to get up by 2:45. I'd always make Katie stay in bed until at least 5:00. While I'd take a shower, Katie would go downstairs to get herself crackers since she was really hungry by then. I asked her how she got the crackers out of the tall cupboard, and she happily showed me.

All I had to do was to pull my table over to the counter and crawl up on it. 

Then I could reach the crackers when I got on my toes!
