Is it all kids? Or just mine? I know my children are assholes, specifically to each to each other, but mornings are even worse.
And G? Omfg.
I lay out her clothes. I make her breakfast. I comb her hair. I tie her shoes because she refuses to learn.
By the time it's time to go the entire house is ready to fucking throttle her. She's a morning person. First one up and happy as a lark.
She's fucking lazy. And doesn't care that she's making everyone else late.
I've got four pissed off and mean kids on my hands getting into the car every morning. (B amps up the big brother assholery in the am)
Help

I dunno, kiddo. My kids are different kinds of assholes in the morning.
Girl child: refuses to properly wash hair, so I have to do it. Refuses to comb hair, so I have to. Wants to talk about animals or TV shows or whatever else all morning instead of getting dressed. I wear headphones to tune her out, and then snap at her ever few seconds to keep getting dressed. Which she does at a pace that would make a turtle tap his foot.
Boy child: HATES mornings. I have to physically drag him out of bed. I have to physically shove him into the shower. I have to bodily drag him out of the shower (usually still dirty, because he fucks around and doesn't wash). Then I have to manhandle him into his clothes. The whole time, he's whining excuses at me, trying to get out of going to school.
"My tummy is hungry!" "My brain hurts!" "My eyes are bleeding!"
Headphones save my children's lives most mornings. : /

G is an angel in the morning. Wakes up on his own at 6 - 6:30, messes around on the computer, I tell him to get dressed, he does, easy. He gets easily distracted, so I have to stay on him, but he's good.
Eli, on the other hand, sleeps through his alarm. I yell. Nothing. I shake him. Eyelid flutter. I shake him again. Nearly inaudible groan. I yell. He's up. I make G breakfast. Eli's asleep again. I yell. I pull him to an upright position. He gets dressed, brushes, puts his coat on. He has perfected this "arms crossed in front of him forward fall onto the couch" where he remains until I kick him and shove him into the car.
"Good morning, Bubby!!" says Gram. "Oxymoron", mumbles Eli.
Bonding.

Lol That sounds like my house Ronin but I make them bathe at night. I literally can't get G to focus to save my life.
B? I walk in and basically smack him upside the head and flip the light on. Only way he's moving is if I piss him off. Nothing else works.
G wakes up before me. :•| L is shortly after her whining "omg it's EARLY"
P= "mommy if we just snuggle all day can I stay home. I'm sleepy. "

Our mornings move pretty smoothly. After school is when I have a hard time getting my kids to move, they're tired and just want to play. Which is why I'm so glad we don't have homework

As I've been up since three with horrific heartburn and feel like the living dead. And daddy was off. ..he got a glimpse into those few weeks. Lol
I woke all small people up At 6:30 (ten minutes early) and set them to their breakfast. I laid the girls clothes out.
Then I came and crawled back in bed. Woke daddy up and said "I can't today. Tag. You're it. "
So...needless to say I haven't ACTUALLY gone back to sleep yet but it wasn't TOO awful. He came in with questions a few times
"The girls wanna know if I'm laying their clothes out because they aren't allowed in their closet.... am I?! Who wears what size?!" *already got ya covered honey. *
Offered to start picking their.clothes out weekly to make his life easier . He said nope. Show him where stuff is he will figure it out.
Well OK.
Then ..ha. he tried to take a shower.. now. This is a rookie mistake Lol I do this either BEFORE I wake them or after the bigs are at school and it's just me and P and she's settled with a snack and Mickey Mouse.
Not only did they interrupt his shower a few times to pee and brush teeth, they used the opportunity to come into our room and get me to do hair. "We're gonna be late if we wait on DADDY..he's showering!!! *complete with eye rolls and 'tuh... the nerve' sentiment.. because heaven forbid an adult bathe around here*
B was ...of course...an absolute dream for his father whereas I've normally broken up three fights with him and G by 7:30 after dragging him out of bed by his feet. I'm hard pressed to say I don't resent that a little bit. But surely in the three weeks we are all home together L will meet "condescending asshole big brother B" who makes even me want to punch him in the nuts...right?
They only left the house close to ten minutes late Lol (even though I woke them early) because... to quote P "daddy got a shower...we only have one bathroom!"
Now it's time for me to get moving and get her to school (he's running to the lease to check on the trailer. They've had some interesting weather)
He did OK Lol but I bet he tries to get his shower earlier now.

Only 10 minutes late, eh? That's not as bad as it could've been.

Caught another glimpse of how mornings are gonna be.....
FML.
I took benedryl last night and put myself in a coma at husband and doctor urging since I'm averaging 3 hours or less a night lately.
Woke up to.... fucking chaos.
He did fine. Until he told the girls to go get dressed. He didn't get their clothes out . But sent them into their room and closet unsupervised.
I woke up out of a coma to drawers hitting the ground and closet railings being destroyed and a cat fight.
To say I came unglued is the fucking.... understatement.... of the year.
What the FUCK WAS HE THINKING?
And then
Gets attitude because "I was being sweet and letting you sleep.. I was trying to help?!"
By letting the inmates run the asylum?! Fuck no.
I have to figure out a way to have this baby naturally and just get sterilized later. He clearly cannot handle this.

It took him ten years to figure out he's married to a control freak. BTW
