We had four extra little people in our home last night.  Two of my nieces and two of my nephews. 

We had a full house.

It was totally exciting, never a dull moment and extremely loud…all night long and in to this morning!  As we were getting in to the van this morning, the kids wouldn’t get right in to their seats and it seemed no one wanted to listen to direction…so I turned off the van, pulled out my keys and told the kids that I was going back in the house and to yell when they’re ready to go.  That moved them along pretty quickly! 

Honestly, though, I love having a full house.  I just hope that when my children are grown and moved out they come back to visit often and I am able to spend a lot of time with my grandchildren!  An empty and quiet house just isn’t home to me!
