the sound of silence

It's no secret that kids are noisy. Add to that fact that there are 5 kids here all the time, and you get a lot of noise. Boys especially, are noisy. They don't sit and comb a doll's hair or do crafts. They like to hit, bang, shoot and cavort around wildly. Add to that fact that 4 of my 5 are boys, and you get a LOT of noise. I don't really feel like I should be telling the kids to "be quiet" every second of every day. Even though I want to, quite often. They have to be kids, noisy kids. Usually I will just go in my room, shut and lock the door and try to regain my senses while the chaos reigns outside.

Well, the kids are in Idaho for the week, visiting Stick's parents and I am really missing their noise. This house has never been so quiet. It's a little sad. I may just have to go hit something, bang something, shoot something and cavort around. Then I'll feel better. I hope.
