This is my view every weekday morning from 6:00 until 6:45 AM.  It is the back entrance to our church, where Jessica has early morning seminary.  I drive her there, then sit in my car while she has class.

And, this is what I do as I wait.  I read my book, drink an ice cold Diet Coke (yes, at 6 AM - don't judge me), and listen to the radio.  It is actually quite delightful.  Knowing I can do this for 45 minutes makes it easy for me to drag my hiney out of bed at 5:45.

There are a couple of other seminary parents who also spend the time in their cars in the parking lot, but they appear to sleep.  I usually can't see them until they spring their seats up at 6:45 when their child opens the car door and the overhead light comes on.  There seems to be an unspoken rule that none of the pajama-clad parents look at or acknowledge each other at this ungodly hour.  It's really better that way.
