This week is a strange week, as both my children are away all week. I suddenly find myself having far less to do. The house is tidier, the washing baskets are not full, and I can stay at work guilt free past 5.
Yet, most of all it's the quiet that I notice. The garden seems empty after all the kids that have been visiting over the summer, the trampoline is empty.
My challenge is to embrace the quiet, the space and not fill it with clutter just so there is no silence. One day I will learn that space does not mean work harder, enjoy the morning coffee in peace and wait for the noisy return.
