Night sounds quiet

I'm thinking of how quiet my house is right now. The night sounds that filled every room only a few short weeks ago have gone. Summer giving in to fall. Now all I hear are the sounds that the dogs make in their sleep. Mia is asleep in her crib, Neil has retired for the night and I'm left to myself. It seems that all the trouble I could get into was thinking about this silence. Sad, I know. Still, here I am.

There is nothing profound that I have to say, no words of wisdom to pass on or life lessons to relieve to the one person who reads my posts. It's just nice to find oneself here; stopping and taking in the quiet. After all, it comes to us so rarely in our busy lives.

I love the serious reflection, Holly! I do declare. Your starting to sound a bit like me. Also, I love that picture of you and Neil at the top of the blog. One of my favorites. Keep up the blogging. You're doing better than me these days! ~Kim
