“best part of waking up”

In honor of their new jingle-writing contest, Folgers has posed their famous question to some food bloggers to answer — what’s your “best part of waking up”?
I’d love to say that my mornings include a homemade breakfast and a leisurely cup of coffee enjoyed with a book or the day’s news. But my little puppy here would have to testify that I’m nnnnnot so great with the alarm clock. So more often than not my mornings are more of a scramble lively-paced adventure in making it to work on time, often with a bag of Cheerios in tow. :)
But regardless of how early I wake up, my hands-down favorite part of the morning is quite simply looking out my bedroom window and feeling the newness of the day. Seeing that light has once more emerged from darkness. Listening to the sounds of my neighborhood waking up and preparing for another day. Finding hope in mercies anew. I know it may sound cliche, but (even when I’m sleep-deprived or running at a crazy pace) mornings always leave me in awe. Grateful for these days we’ve been given.
So what is your “best part of waking up”???
Cheers to mornings and the best parts of waking up! :)
Awe, cute pup!
My best part of waking up… My husband’s a firefighter so he works 24hr shifts. My best part of waking up is reaching to the other side of the bed because I can’t remember if he’s there or not. Some mornings my hand hits handsome man, other mornings my hand hits furry, snuggly dog. Not bad either way!
The best part of waking up….is the possibility of a new day and a fresh start!
The best part for me is the recognition that each day holds potential, and then taking the first step to make something of the day.
“Best part of waking up” is another day with my children. I voted for Ryan A., Roswell, GA.

Best part of waking up after 70 years is actually “waking up” and being able to walk to the coffee pot to make myself my folgers cup of coffee. I am now allowed to enjoy the cup for a least an hour before going to the office. Used to have to drink it on the run.
Ryan A. – awesome!
Good article. I definitely appreciate this website.
Keep it up!
We thank you, Tera!
