SV 32: Peace


On Wednesday night the kids and I slept over at Mom and Dad's for the fishing trip on Thursday. On Thursday night the kids stayed over again and I went home for some peace and quiet with David. Only David didn't get home till really late, so it was peace and quiet by myself. And I had most of the day on Friday to myself before the kids came home. I always appreciate a little break from the routine and I really enjoyed the quiet. But... when we were all back together again on Friday night it felt like everything was back to how it should be. Hearing Archer and Shelly laughing together warms me up inside. Their empty beds leaves me feeling a little unsettled. And this morning, when Shelly and I had a serious conversation about the color of our underwear, I knew life was back to normal. I mean, what's a day without deeply considering the things that are most important in life? We all have blue underwear, so we need to make sure that the new baby has some too when he's born!
