WInter morings can be a real pain....

Winter mornings and our house can sometimes be a battle of wills trying to get my eldest to stop hiding under is blanket and get ready for school. Its not even that its that cold here most mornings, nor is it becuase he doesn't like school....its more to do with that in winter the sun isn't shining in the windows fully until about 8am and of course he wont get up until the sun is shinning....grr. On top of this he refuses to organise himself for school... refuses to pack his bag, refuses to put his lunch in his lunchbox and will often go to school forgetting the library book that is due back...which of course is mums fault...!
