It’s quiet…a little TOO quiet

I remember a while back, washing dishes in the kitchen and suddenly thinking, “Huh, they’re being awfully quiet.  I wonder what’s up…”

I walked back to the bedroom.  The door was closed.  Uh-oh.

Slightly terrified, I pushed it open, bracing myself for what I might find inside.  And my eyes did indeed fall upon a shocking sight, but not the kind I was expecting.

There, sitting side-by-side on the little toddler bed, were my 3-year-old and 1-year-old, reading books.  (Ok, so they weren’t technically “reading,” but they were absorbed)  They looked up at me and smiled, and I just shook my head in wonder.

I guess quiet can be a good thing.  🙂
