Silence

In every happy couple, there is one morning person and one night person. In my marriage, I am the morning person. The cost of being the morning person is lack of sleep because no matter how late I stay up working/talking/gaming with my husband, I still wake up early the next morning.

The reward of being the morning person is silence. Peace. Solitude. A quiet house with no one demanding anything of you such as breakfast, candy, help tying a shoe or attention. Freedom. Quiet time with God.

I think you're reading my diary! ;) Same here. No matter how early or late I go to bed, I'm up before the sun. It's tiring but nice to have the solitude.
