Ahhhhh Silence...

School started last week.

I sent my middle baby to kindergarten and while I had a few moments of reservation the night before, when the actual day arrived and I saw how fired-up he was to go, the last of my worries melted away. He got on the bus like a pro, found his classroom with only a tiny bit of help, boldly ordered chocolate milk in the lunchroom, and ran all the way home from the bus stop. And, he saucily informed me, he didn't miss me at all.

Hmmph.

I, of course, spent that first day wandering around like an idiot -- what should I do with myself? When the baby went down for her nap, I had 2 full hours to kill and the swirling galaxy of possibilities was so overwhelming that I did what anyone would have done in my position.

I took a nap.
