Empty house

It's funny. My friends and I joked about how having the family gone would allow for more sleep and give me the weekend off. Hope and I joked about it too. I was looking forward to having a quiet weekend by myself.

But here I am walking into an empty house and it doesn't feel right. All the standard things I have been doing are missing. I always check on Emi when I walk in to make sure she is sleeping alright. There is an empty spot in the bed where the love of my life is usually asleep next to me. Even Gibson seems a little bummed that no one is around.

I miss them. It is safe to say I'd rather give up a little sleep to have Hope and Emi around than to be hanging out in this empty house.

They can't come home soon enough.
