00:00:07:29
Okay, I’ll tell you what our mornings look like on a regular school day, until my kid is ready and has to go.
00:00:07:29
00:00:14:23
Okay, so first my flashing light alarm clock wakes me up, but I stay in bed for a little longer and keep my eyes closed.
00:00:14:23
00:00:17:32
Eventually I get up and go to my son.
00:00:17:32
00:00:21:20
I go into his room, switch on the light and wake him up gently.
00:00:21:20
00:00:24:08
That way, he can prepare himself mentally to get up soon.
00:00:24:08
00:00:27:32
Then I go to the bathroom to wash myself and brush my teeth.
00:00:27:32
00:00:31:18
If my son hasn’t come into the bathroom by then, I call him again.
00:00:31:18
00:00:33:23
He hears that, gets up and joins me in the bathroom.
00:00:33:23
00:00:36:02
Of course, he first has to use the toilet.
00:00:36:02
00:00:39:04
So I let him do that and wash myself. Afterwards I help him get dressed.
00:00:39:04
00:00:43:34
After that I wash his face. When he feels like it, he does that himself. Otherwise I help him.
00:00:43:34
00:00:48:29
I take a wash cloth and wet it with warm water. Then I hand him the wash cloth and he washes his face.
00:00:48:29
00:00:50:40
When he’s done, he puts the wash cloth aside and/
00:00:50:40
00:00:54:16
Well, first, he dries his face with a towel and then he puts lotion on his face.
00:00:54:16
00:00:59:31
When he’s done, he lies down again. Not in his own bed though, he lays down next to his mom.
00:00:59:31
00:01:02:09
I let him, because I have to get dressed and ready as well.
00:01:02:09
00:01:06:34
Then I wake him again, but I give him one or two minutes to get up.
00:01:06:34
00:01:11:12
I go downstairs and warm up some milk for him.
00:01:11:12
00:01:14:19
While the milk warms up, I pull up the blinds.
00:01:14:19
00:01:17:08
Then I check to see if my son is coming downstairs, and he is.
00:01:17:08
00:01:20:31
He may then choose the cereal he wants and I pour some into a bowl.
00:01:20:31
00:01:23:42
I switch off the stove and pour the milk over his cereal.
00:01:23:42
00:01:27:42
I also give him water and then let him enjoy his breakfast in peace.
00:01:27:42
00:01:30:40
Then I ask him what he would like to take with him to primary school.
00:01:30:40
00:01:34:01
As in, whether he wants fruit or bread or something else.
00:01:34:01
00:01:37:14
I prepare that for him and put it in his box.
00:01:37:14
00:01:38:32
Meanwhile he can relax a little over breakfast.
00:01:38:32
00:01:42:12
When he’s done, he knows it’s time to brush his teeth.
00:01:42:12
00:01:44:04
In the meantime I clean up and pack his school bag.
00:01:44:04
00:01:47:20
I get something to drink for him from the basement and then everything is packed.
00:01:47:20
00:01:48:35
I wait for him to finish brushing his teeth.
00:01:48:35
00:01:53:01
I lay out his jacket and put out shoes for him. He puts both on by himself.
00:01:53:01
00:01:58:06
I ask him if he’s got everything. The most important thing, which he may not forget, is his neck pouch, because his bus ticket is in there.
00:01:58:06
00:02:00:49
He has a monthly A-B-O [short for Abonnement, engl. subscription], a subscription.
00:02:00:49
00:02:03:16
I hang the pouch around his neck and when he has everything, he’s ready.
00:02:03:16
00:02:08:29
Then I get a kiss, I wave him goodbye, and he’s on his way. That’s it.
00:02:08:29
00:02:09:10
00:02:09:10
00:02:10:20
Great, well done.
00:02:10:20
00:02:10:24
That’s our process.
00:02:10:24
00:02:12:01
00:02:12:01
00:02:15:34
It’s always the same during the week.
00:02:15:34
00:02:16:30
00:02:16:30
00:02:20:26
Asks A, whether his everyday life always looks the same.
00:02:20:26
00:02:22:26
Yes, it’s like that the whole week.
00:02:22:26
00:02:23:01
00:02:23:01
00:02:23:35
00:02:23:35
00:02:26:10
Only on weekends is our schedule more flexible.
