I am so ready for spring to arrive! I hope it comes with a house for us!
We have been meandering along the everydays of life quite well. Schoolwork seems to be for the most part humming right along. Dishes get done, laundry is washed and folded, and meals are shared. But everyday there is a growing awareness of something missing. That something is definitely the unspoken need to be in a home.
Case in point, I washed the slipcovers to our couch last week and it made me long to cuddle up into it. Nicholas later asked about a book we use to read and suddenly we all wanted to see it's beautiful illustrations. Toys that have sat on the shelf for many seasons, now in boxes, have playmates currently waiting their reappearence. Its a funny feeling living so long with just the essentials of your life. The daily workings are just fine but the under girded pleasures are like an empty space beneath you. I do hope we make good decisions in our house hunting. I have always know that a home is a gift that wraps you in warmth, courage, and inspiration but I will never take it for granted quite the same!
