"SWEET CAROLINE... BUM, BUM, BUM!" - That's the sound of my construction worker dad, who was used to waking up at 3:30 in the morning, singing at the top of his lungs on weekend mornings as my brother and I started waking up in our beds... It was usually 7:00am at the latest. My brother would yell out the classic response "I'm trying to sleep!" in which my dad would yell even louder "it's go-time!". So maybe it’s a genetic predisposition or it’s the early morning environment he created in our home that led me to believe morning is a time to thrive, rather than wish away. I can't help it, I love mornings.
