a quiet moment


I am sitting in a very quiet house. The grandparents have whisked Afton to the park (at my request), there is a load of laundry in, the house is clean, the baby is sleeping. I'm breathing in this quiet moment. I love silence. I love feeling the stillness of my world. Whether I am in nature, at home, church or in my car the quiet soothes me, rocks me. And I just love it.

And just that quickly it is gone. The neighbors came home, the laundry cries out for a change. Oh well. I really enjoyed it while it lasted!
