The Time Change Curse

The thought of changing the clocks to "fall back" each autumn was always a welcome treat! An extra hour of sleep, it almost feels as though you're stealing time! Earlier in the year when we "sprang ahead" to Daylight Savings Time, I was warned by other parents of the curse time changes really are! Routines and schedules get thrown into a loop! I took note of these warnings and was pleasantly surprised when the spring ahead went without a hitch. Flash forward 6 months and I have a clear understanding of the Time Change Curse. 

Before kids, an extra hour of sleep! With kids, 5:30am wake up call!! Molly, who usually wakes up first each morning, has kept a consistent routine this week of waking up anywhere between 5:15-5:45am. My mornings this week basically have looked something like this...


When lamenting to two of my university girls, Salina informed me she just put her son to bed 30-45 minutes later to help with the transition! Wish I would have thought of that idea!!
