Extra Curricular Activities

Kenzie and I were discussing what kind of activities she would be interested in participating in this fall.   I mentioned some choices.  "You could take a dance class, a cooking class, or maybe swimming lessons."  She mentioned that her top choices were cooking and sleeping.  I didn't realize that she found such enjoyment in sleeping that she labeled it as a fun activity.  Let me just mention that Kenzie never sleeps past 7am and most days is up by 6am.  So I discussed with Kenzie the importance of practice.  To master a skill one must practice over and over again.  It would be wise to make a decision to sleep until 8am or 9am and then you will have all the practice you need to become a pro-sleeper.

The only problem is…

Fast forward 10 years…

Me:   Kenzie, time to wake up for school.  

Kenzie:  Mom, not now,  I am practicing to become a pro.
