The activity around here seems to have really picked up over the last few days.
Last night, I was sitting at my computer reading over posts on a website I frequent.
My computer desk is in one corner of my living room, so that when sitting at the computer, my back is to the kitchen.
I had the kitchen light on and the light was illuminating my desk and the wall above it.
As I was reading over things on the computer, a shadow appeared on the wall in front of me and move quickly away, as if someone had stepped into the doorway to the kitchen and blocked out the light and then quickly moved away.
I honestly thought it was my daughter coming down for a late-night snack and turned around to greet her, only to find nothing. Everyone was in bed, sound asleep.
About an hour later, I was laying on the couch reading a book when I heard the distinct sound of a soda can opening. I again thought it was my daughter, but quickly found that she was sound asleep in her room.
Then today, my boys were in the living room watching Blue Clues. I was watching them dance around to the song on the show when I suddenly heard a child's voice murmur something. I couldn't make out what it said, but it wasn't any of my boys as I was looking right at them and none of them spoke. The TV was playing a song at the time, so it wasn't the TV. The voice was really out of place and sounded female. No one was outside. My daughter wasn't home. It was odd.
