It is hardest when she stays at my parent’s house. I know she will be home soon but, it seems to take forever. Yesterday, she did not arrive at our home until 4:30. Honestly, when she is gone, it is so boring. Ralph was still at work and I had been on the toothbrush hunt (do not ask) for an hour. Nevertheless, when I arrived at our place there was just this silence.
Silence. Something that seems so distant during the movement of a regular day, the singing and questions fill every minute. Where was it? I truly missed it. Days such as these are good for me; they force me to look at things very differently. Unfortunately, getting caught up in the daily crap does not leave you the time to enjoy all that we should.
I often wonder what life would be with two or three or four. Will we miss even more of the songs that make us laugh? As I write this many of our friends have added to their family which appears very exciting. But, with both of us working what will happen? Let’s just see what God has in store for our family.
