Silence slips in after the fun, the excitement, the storms.  As it does, it brings soft, quiet moments of reflection.  The needs of the day bring in the Noise, but the Silence is ready to creep back to bring peace. 

Such a nice reminder of the joy that is find in quiet moments.  A nice introduction to or supplement of mindfulness.  Pelletier’s illustrations add to the dreamy atmosphere every time Silence makes an appearance.
