No, but my monster is nearly 10 and just gets herself up (about 7 ish) makes her breakfast as I leave a bowl, cereal etc on the work top and has that then watches tv or reads/draws til I get up.
She's such a little sweetie she even turns the volume on the tv down so she doesn't wake me.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
No my two are in bed already. We are going to be up at silly o'clock tomorrow as we're off on holiday. I have not been my normal organised self and still have all the bags to pack :cool: Cant concentrate properly when they are dashing around all excited.The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.0

Mine's a great sleeper too at the moment but he does like to rise early and rattle the bars of his cage until attended to by a parent."Growth for growth's sake is the ideology of the cancer cell" - Edward Abbey.0

Have a lovely holiday marisco
. I just hope it's not camping in woods down in the South East...the winds howling out there already.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once0 -
No but he is 9 and I let him have an extra half hour of bookworming at the weekend anyway. If he does wake up he'll read until his belly tells him to wake us.
When he was a toddler/baby I used to nudge by 1/2 hour but then I found it resolved its self within a week anyway."On behalf of teachers, I'd like to dedicate this award to Michael Gove and I mean dedicate in the Anglo Saxon sense which means insert roughly into the anus of." My hero, Mr Steer.0 -
