"good mornin' sunshine"
My dearly departed pop used to say that to me. I was always the last moss out of bed. Roused too early. Still filled with sleep. Disheveled. Dazed.
He whispered it to me this morning, but I was already fully awake.
It's the weekend. I shouldn't be THIS excited about it, but I am. I really really am.

Such a sweet memory. My 6 year old is named Maya (Sun Goddess) Soleil (Sun in French). I say this to her everyday; and "you are my sunshine," sometimes followed by the entire song. :-)

love people remember little things like that ;) I remember my Pop pop would have a powered donut in the morning and carefully cut pieces around...giving me one or two. Your sharing just brought up that memory for me. Thank you! ...and always nice with a pile of books on the bed quilt for sure!
