My director, checking in to see how the afternoon had gone, apologized for the noise and pointed out that I could take a tray to the small dining room down the hall and eat in silence and I told him I was treating the noise like the babble of brook. It's there, but no need to let it disturb me. He was amused!<br /><br />No buzzing here this afternoon as mine are all out and about (Science Olympiad 'away game')!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12617476463347663364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7565601.post-9492363265472639762011-01-14T10:47:37.724-05:002011-01-14T10:47:37.724-05:00Love this!!

I find myself struggling to make the transition each day from the silence of my writing to the "noise" of my three children buzzing around after school until bedtime. I have often wondered how to find the peace within that chaos. This column is a gift.<br />MaryMary DeTurris Pousthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06681978685726230673noreply@blogger.com
