FULL HOUSE
We had a house full of kids (old ones) and grandkids (younger ones) last week. It was a lot of fun. And now it is quiet. At first, that is fine. To be honest, there are moments in a full house when we pray for quiet. But, you have to be careful what you ask for. Today, we got it. It is very, well, quiet.
The towels and sheets are done. We have picked up here and there. John's study is now a study and not a bedroom for two active boys. The busy work is over. Did I mention that it is quiet?
Franklin has slept a lot today and, frankly, so have we. It is good work to have guests and takes a lot of different energy. Everyone got home safely, lives are resumed; it is a busy week. We will keep moving and then slowly get familiar with the pitter patter of 8 feet (two plus two plus four).
