is it wake upping time?

4:55 a.m.

Henry:  Mom!  Good morning!  It's time to wake up!  We have to get ready for work and school now.
Me: *checks the clock and sees it's too early* It's too early kiddo, the alarm hasn't gone off yet.
H:  Mom!  I'm gonna get up, okay?
M:  zzzzzzzzz....
H:  Mom!  I didn't stay in my bed last night, isn't that silly?!
M: zzzzzzzzz....
H: Okay mom, I'm getting up.  Byebye.

5:15 a.m.
Henry:  Mom!  Is it time to wake up?
Me:  zzzzzzzzz....
H:  Mom!  Mom!  I want to cuddle.
M:  Climb under the covers, we can cuddle.

5:30 a.m.
Alarm goes off.
Me:  Good morning, Henry!  It's time to get up!
Henry:  No mom, it's not wake upping time.  Don't wake me up. I want to go to sleep.

I got up and in the time that he had gotten up by himself, he had turned on lights in the kitchen, played with his trucks on the counter, turned on a lamp in the living room and looked at some books on the floor.  No wonder he was tired and needed to go back to sleep!  I hope he takes a good nap at school today or this evening will be no fun for anyone.
