the best night

I had the best night tonight. We had just put the boys to bed. I looked around the house noticing the dishes that needed to be done and the family room needed to be picked up from our family home evening and reading the scriptures. Nathaniel helped me to get things in order without me asking. As I was about to load up the dishwasher, Nathaniel started to play the piano. Most of the lights were already turned off except for the lamp in the front room. I left the dishes behind and sat in the rocking chair next to the piano, trying to comfort Grace. Nathaniel sang and played a few songs. I relished the moment. Quiet... well, every so often Ethan or Isaac would want something. For the most part, it was just the piano and my husband singing. I was content. Never mind the spit up on my shoulder, Grace upset or the dishes I left in the sink. It was amazing!
