This Is My Life? Peace and Quiet

E is napping. (Almost four hours so far!)
B is at a friend’s house apres school.
S is helping me clean, REALLY clean.
It is quiet. And peaceful. And productive around here.
Is this really my life?

I am savoring it.

I know there may be only minutes–or just seconds, even–left.

A FOUR-HOUR nap???!!! I am beyond jealous.

Relish every second. You deserve it for sure.

OK, so, seconds after I hit publish, I heard the creak of the back door. But two kids is SO much easier than three. And E is STILL napping.

Oh, that sounds lovely. Especially that 4-hour nap. If I didn’t think you totally deserved it, I’d be jealous.
