morning cup

reading - it's a scene i see more and more these days. yesterday's selection.
a book of manners. nice.

my day starts at 5:00 am. bread is made. coffee brews. laundry tumbles.the turtle chews on a spatula. papa bear readies himself for work. the five yr old monkey sleeps. i steal a look at a crossword. send the man out the door and check email. just when i consider climbing back in bed the sun is up. the monkey is stirring. the baby is scootin and rootin for breakfast... another day begins.
