Never has silence been so quiet, emptiness so lonely.

Jods, Andy, Alex, and Connor are currently on a plane home. The house is calm, the cat is out of hiding, and their scents still linger in the air. It will take a while to get back to normal; for the basement to no longer smell lived in. Three weeks was not nearly enough, but I know I'll see them again soon and it can't come fast enough.
I'll miss the boys pestering me and getting a rise out of me because it's "dead easy", the giggles, the tickles, the cuddles and the hugs.
Heck, I'll even miss the bickering.
The laughter, the tears.
The walks to the lake, the lazy days on the beach.
The comfort of knowing my sister is just downstairs, instead of an ocean away.
(not to forget her suitcase!)
Come on Spring!
