When my house is full of guests, friends, my children, and I seem to be forever chasing, serving, preparing food and drinks, tidying away and telling everyone to keep the noise down and behave, I long for the time of day when everyone leaves, and I can enjoy the peace, quiet and my own company once more.
However when I close the front door to the last guest to leave, it feels as if the life from my home seemingly leaves as well. The temperature drops and I can hear the living room clock ticking from upstairs. I feel very alone and not at one in my own company. I long for the rowdiness, mess and life to return once more to my home, and share it with loved ones once more.
