Wake Up/Why Are You Sleeping?

Location

Mom at Six Months: "Wake up honey, it's your turn", to my dad.

Me at Sixteen Months: "Wake uh Ake", to our dog.

Me at Six: "Wake up mommy, why are you still sleeping!?"

Grandma Six Months later: "Son wake up, you can't spend the rest of your life sleeping"

Me in Sixth Grade: "Dad wake up, I'm late for school!"

Me at Sixteen: "World wake up, I have a story to tell. Why are you sleeping!?"

to anyone who will listen...
