how do they rise up?

[tielan]

I'd forgotten how early children get up. It's 5:45am and already there's the patter of tiny feet as my cousin's kids rise and shine.

Of course, I've been up since 4am, because my body decided that it wasn't able to sleep and woke up me. *sigh*

(I feel like I need another Pterry icon. Hm.)
