PEACE and QUIET

Its 4:45pm and I am so happy. Usually this time of day the intensity is rising...gearing up for the five 'o'clock melt down. But not today. Everyone else is asleep. Its still, its quiet..I love it. Don't get me wrong. I love my family, but I also LOVE a quiet afternoon (or morning or night), mostly I just love a little bit of "me time". I know I will NOT be loving it at 8pm when I am trying to put the 3 year old to bed and she is not tired. But today I don't care. Its totally worth it.
