Doesn't look there was any "rebound" there. A rebound occurs when your blood sugar goes low - like below 4.0 - and the release of glycogen sends it up sharply - to like 15+mmol/l. Your highish morning BG was probably from the bedtime snack the previous night.
When using NPH, the bedtime shot should at least partially cover breakfast the next morning. Bear in mind that NPH has maximal action between 4 and 12 hours after you inject it. So the evening shot is peaking at breakfast time (7-9am). And it is why you see your BG dropping steadily in the morning, in the absence of food.. Is there any reason why you aren't eating breakfast earlier?
It is much easier to get a handle on flat action basal insulin, like Lantus or Levimir. Have you considered this?
