In the Quiet....

As I was trudging up the stairs last night, anxious to crawl into my bed, I heard the voice of a 7 year old quietly say, "Mom?"  At this hour of the night, when he should have been asleep at least an hour ago, I am not overjoyed to hear my name called.  His answer makes me feel guilty for my earlier annoyance.  "Mom, when it's quiet like this and I'm laying in my bed, I can feel the Spirit.  When I feel the Spirit, it always makes me think of my family.  When I think about our family, I always think of you first."
