Husband's
#1 - The gift of a morning routine - Alarm at 5:15, snooze so I can wrap my warm arms around Lovely Wife, snug around your side and knees behind your knees (that's the best part of the routine ;). Into the living room, put daily Scripture up for Exodus Community, get distracted by basketball stuff, read daily Scripture from Exodus Community, get distracted by other blogs, type prayers to God, doze off for awhile, get into shower, pray with my Bride, off to work. It's a secure (and sometimes scattered) way to start a day.
#2 - The gift of breaks in a morning routine - This morning, Son #2 didn't want to sleep alone anymore at 5:30. He just wanted to snuggle. Devotions with nine month old's resting on your chest... priceless.
#3 - The gift of morning coffee - Um, any doubt that this would make the list. I know, Brother and Father, that you haven't converted yet, but for me it's not taste or caffeine or whatever, it's tradition. The smell of the coffee, the way it feels warm in my hand, the student crafted mugs I've been given, the break that it gives me from thinking or talking when I take a drink... (contented sigh).
What about the all of you? Morning is the best time, right? Do you have morning routines? Do you drink coffee? What's your favorite type? (Equal Exchange - Hazelnut Cream)
