It's nice to have peace and quiet. When I'm alone (baby is asleep boys are out on an errand) I do not turn on the TV. I do not turn on the radio/CD. Nothing. All I hear is the buzzing of the house. The refrigerator, the AC, the laptop, the humming of the ceiling fans....just me and the electronic stuff. It's nice. Shhhhhhh...what was that? Oh, nothing, not a sound. Not the TV blaring, not someone calling for "mamma", just quiet.
I will enjoy it while I can. I don't think it will last long and me and my thoughts could use a break now and again, know what I mean?
Yes, there's work to do, there's laundry and toys to pick up, kitchen floor to sweep, dishes to do and work work to do on the laptop. All of that exists. But right now, it's just me and the quiet. Shhhh, don't jinx me. Just let me revel...it's not often I get this you know. In fact, I can't really think of a time I do.

You cook, you clean, you go to work, you nourish, you love, you scold, you are professional and yet you hang your hat on every dust particle in your home. You are a woman. Some women are Moms and some are not. You are still a woman. We are all made similarly. We are strong.
