A silent house...

Do you hear that??? Neither do I. That's the sound of silence. Its been one week since school started. The first few days I had too much going on to enjoy it. Now...it's heaven. The only footsteps I hear are Ruby's. And she's usually just waking up from a nap and needs to check on me.

Ben and Molly are both enjoying school. Ben is happy to be with his friends. Molly tells me everyday she's made a new friend. She seems to be adjusting well except being exhausted when she gets home. Last night she asked me to tuck her in at about 6:20. Who am I to say no to that request? She woke up happy and ready to go this morning.

Now I'm off to clean Ben's room. And by clean, I mean removing everything on the floor that I've been telling him to put away for the last few weeks. He's been warned that one day he might find all his toys on the floor gone. Time to learn Mom means business. Molly's room has always been clean. If you tell her to clean it, she does.
