My two biggest kids came home last evening: one for the summer and one only for the weekend. I listened as the sounds of the house returned to "normal." I know this is temporary and no longer the normal which makes it all the more wonderful. #smallstories

@Tdorey that 'normal' is magic. We had it too a few weeks ago, and we all melted into something comfortable and familiar -
even if all our paths cross less often now, it's like the smell of spring. never forgotten, even in the cold of winter, and when it comes back, it's like it never left.
-and it can happen with friends too, sometimes in unexpected places. I think that's what 'home' feels like.
