Should be in Bed

June 29, 2010 RavenThreads

All is quiet here except for the sounds of the dishwasher. I should be in bed…Should be in bed. I have two little munchkins asleep in their bunk beds. A husband and a small baby snoozing together in the recliner. Even the dog is asleep at my feet. All feels right with the world and I know I should go to bed because soon the baby will need me. Yet, I just sit here and appreciate the calm in evening.

Soon I will make myself get up. Then, I will wash bottles. I will go to bed….I will try not to think about all the little things in life that need to be done. I have so many coupons to clip, so many clothes to fold, so many things to clean. So many photos to organize. Soon…Soon…Soon. Tonight, all feels calm and right. Thank you, Jesus, for sending this peace into my life.
