Four Little Monkeys

In the book by A.A. Milne titled Now We Are Six there is a poem that relates to our SPT challenge this week:

Solitude

I have a house where I go
When there’s too many people,
I have a house where I go
Where no one can be;
I have a house where I go
Where nobody ever says “No”;
Where no one says anything – so
There is no one but me.

A.A. Milne

Honestly, sleep has been my only chance for solitude and peace lately. In the summer when all the kids are home, that's just the way it goes. So here I am, dreaming of how I'll spend my time in September when all my children will be in school full time. My baby is six now, you know.

Happy Birthday Chloe!
