Listening to Silence
The sun is shining,
The windows are open,
It’s warm outside.
The birds are chirping,
Other than that…no noise.
The kids are gone.
I’m relaxing.
Internet time.
Shopping time?
Me time.
The kids are gone.
I may sew,
I may watch tv,
I may read blogs.
Hubby has the kids until dinner.
He’s the man of the hour.
Because he’s awesome,
The kids are gone.
Sometimes, Me time is the most important time of the day.
Exactly – like on the airplane when they say to put the oxygen mask on yourself before you try to put it on anyone else. It’s not selfish, it’s making sure you’re around to keep helping.
And that’s my justification of the day.
Having time with no kiddos is not something that should make you feel guilty! It is great and rejuvenating! Hope you had a good day!
I am so jealous! Me time is so important… take advantage of it!!
Bliss is also the title of a great song by Muse 🙂 I’m still in the “can’t stand to be away from my child for 5 seconds” phase. When does that go away?
