Alone in a quiet room. Getting here was quite a journey.....





It has been a very busy and long day today. My oldest son went off to kindergarten so you might think it would be a little quieter at the house today, well it wasn't. My son wasn't home but I have two little girls at home with mommy. For the most part it wasn't that crazy when my son was in school, but a soon as he walked through the door it was the loudest I have heard it in a long time. My oldest daughter was screaming and hugging her brother saying how much she missed her Keaton. He was giving her big hugs back and letting her know that he also missed her. I was thinking wow this is going great then all of a sudden they both were just at each other, the happy screams turned into not so happy screams. They were making faces at each other and my son was doing stuff I swear I had never seen before. I was already thinking great look what he has learned in school. All I heard was "mom she is taking my toy", "mom he isn't letting me play". Finally my son just broke down in tears and just wanted to be alone. He had such a long day at school he was overwhelmed with everything and everyone. When he came back out everything was much better the rest of the night. Even tough it was noisy it was good noisy. They decided to play nicely together while there younger sister was trying to make noises and be as loud as she could be so someone would play with her. She is only four months old so the noises that she makes are a little cuter. They helped me get dinner ready and set the table. They both sat right up to the table and ate a pretty good dinner, which is really good in our house. I think they were both so tired they really didn't have the energy to fight eating tonight. When we were all finished eating we washed up, read some books, and went to bed. It was almost time to relax and have some quiet time. I just had to put the baby in her pajamas, feed her before bed and pray she goes right to sleep.

All the kids are in their rooms not a sound to be heard, everyone is fast asleep and the quiet time is well worth the wait .
