Quiet afternoon

Our kids except Tanner are at my sisters house this weekend again. Tanner and my husband Kyle are gone to a basketball game in Sioux Falls tonight with Tanner's boys club group at church. My headaches are more tolerable with the kids gone but it is very lonely and heartbreaking to have them gone so much, too. I can't help but shed a few tears when everyone walks out of the house, just longing for normalcy. I am a social person and this forced isolation is so hard.
