The kids are both back to school and the house feels so empty.  Even though they aren’t around much during the summer it still feels so quiet when they are gone.  Why is it so hard to say good-bye?

Sometimes they drive us all crazy when they are here but now we miss them so much!

The house looks like a whirlwind blew through and the discarded remnants are all that is left to remind us that they were here at all.

Hopefully by the end of the week we will all be feeling better.  We kind of like the quiet house, especially when it’s all cleaned up.  Fall Weekend and Thanksgiving will be here before we know it and we can hug and kiss them all over again!
