This weekend Ron and I have gotten a taste of what life will be like for us in 8 years when Cole heads off to college. Cole left at 4:00p yesterday afternoon for a sleepover with his friend Ryan. Ron and I were able to do a little shopping alone, and then we came home to our quiet house to get dressed for our evening out at my cousin Tonya's 40th birthday party. We came home late to our quiet house, slept all night without interruption, and woke up to a quiet house this morning. We had breakfast without Spongebob serenading us and were able to read the entire Sunday paper in one sitting. Just when we were getting ready to go pick Cole up and bring him home the phone rang and it was Ryan's mom asking if it would be okay for Cole to spend with afternoon with them at Hawaiian Falls water park. So Ron and I enjoyed (?) a quiet afternoon at home. I got a good hour workout in, Ron got some of his chores done, I bought groceries, cleaned the house a bit, baked banana bread and we watched some golf. It's 4:40 now and I'm watching the clock waiting for my baby to come home. He's been gone 24 hours now, the longest I think I have ever been away from him. Sure, it was nice to have a few hours alone. But it has been quiet around here. Too quiet. And I am not sure I like it.
