An empty house

Today it really hit me hard. I got home around 5:00 after classes, and the absolute stillness of my house just got to me. Not that today was much different than most others, except that I just dropped my son off at ONU last Saturday. But it's not like he's been around a lot anyway. Since graduation, he's been hanging out with his friends a lot and hasn't been around much anyway. I don't know... the house just seems more empty than normal I guess.
