Tonight was simple. Uniquely ordinary.
My little boys were dreaming in their beds. My big boy had gone to help his Mom. My canine boy lay completely relaxed on the rug snoring heavily, happily.
I turned the TV off, nestled myself into the comfy corner of the couch and began to read.
The house was quiet. It was unusual, but it was comforting. I felt calm.
A bird outside the window was singing, it's song was clear and kind. The last light of the day was fading slowly. It was as if the bird was singing a goodnight lullaby to the sun, thankful for this day. I felt thankful too.
Sitting in the quiet I felt peaceful, replenished.
Content to be spending time with me.

What book did you decide on reading? I just finished The Hunger Games and am reading the sequel Catching Fire. Really good, but really "disturbing" too. Reminds me of Lord of the Flies. I recommend it, if you like that sort of thing. :)
