Big House....Everyone Finds Me!

Since I've been pondering life's little mysteries lately why is it that we can live in a good size house and yet all 3 children are constantly in whatever room I'm in? I can be in the smallest room in our house (the master bedroom toilet closet) and yet all 3 children are right there with me! I guess you can say my children are well bonded. No issue there! David has been home from work for about 30 minutes and I'm in my home office (the front of our house) typing on the computer. While David gets to sit peacefully in the family room on the couch watching TV, all three children have found something to do in my office. Katelyn is lying on the floor writing in a workbook, Drew is playing with a car and Meredith was reading a book. I say was for Meredith as she started tearing apart the book and ended up in time out. I read about children being all about Daddy. I read about Mommy's upset that their children don't want much to do with them. Sometimes I wish I could experience that for just an hour or so. How peaceful it would be. And than I realize although I wanted the big house, it was because I wanted a big family to fill it up. Therefore, if everyone being in the same room of every hour of the day makes us complete.....the mystery is solved!
