Not A Creature Was Stirring ....

A rare treat tonight.  Nobody home but me.  No BabyGurl, no BoyChild, no Natty.  Just me ... reading a book.  No tv turned on.  No radio.  An odd thing it is.  Kind of a weird feeling.  Not that any of the three of them are any trouble, or require much effort, or keep me from reading or whatever I want to do.  But to be here without anyone else .... it's been a LONG time.  Since last April at least.  That is when Natty came to live with me.  I would've never thought we'd have ended up with the relationship we have - she's just as spoiled as any two-legged grandchild will ever be.

Here she is when she left this afternoon with her Daddy.  This is the jacket she got last year for Christmas (from her Grandma!) As you can see, BoyChild still has a few bags to unpack and things to put away!
