The sweet end of the day

After a busy day or a hectic evening with kids activities, or perhaps a flurry of things to think about or simply having stayed up too late, my latest very favorite thing at the end of the day...

not the penultimate, but the ultimate, final, last thing to do...

the sweet final act...

after having peeked at the sleeping boys, kissed my husband, and climbed the stairs, gotten all ready for bed, lights out, door now closed to any activity, noise, or light in the rest of the house...

is to throw myself across the bed, and simply BE, sprawled crazy on the bed, in the still darkness and quiet.

Aaaaaahhhhhhhh.

Then climb in and nod off.

Sweetest end to any day.
