5am. As a mother, it isn’t that abnormal to be woken up in the night. So when I felt a little hand on mine and a voice calling me, I woke up pretty quickly.
“Mommy, I just wanted to tell you not to disturb me for the next hour.” Um what?? “I am about to count up to 1000 in differences of three and I don’t want you to disturb me in the middle, ok?”
I have to say that I had never heard that one before. I could honestly promise him that no I would not disturb him for the next hour, IF he didn’t disturb me!
Welcome, my friends, to the world of the gifted parent. Be ready to laugh and cry, to sing and scream, to puzzle and wonder.
