SHHHHHH!

"Shhhh," I said.  The talking continued.

"Shhhh," I said again.  Tim's voice carried up the stairs.  The girls laughter reverberated across the room.

"Please guys!  SHHHH!" 

And then I realized it.  I have become my mother.  She constantly shushes people from talking too loud.  She shushes people when they guffaw.  She shushes my dad on the phone.  It isn't a bad or rude shushing; I think she just prefers the quiet.  Much like myself.  And if she is anything like me, and I suspect she is, if the outside environment is relatively peaceful and quiet, then the internal environment follows that peace and quiet to a place of serenity.

But ugh.  Becoming my mother already?  Aren't I too young for that?

Sorry mom.
