I 'll remember running through the sprinkler with your boys (in my clothes) and pushing young bella on her swing. and running races down the driveway. i will remember the first time i was saw you in your wig, and then your bald head. i will remember feeling welcomed always. hearing your kids pray at meal times. sittiing in the loft. on the porch massaging the lymphedema in your hand. playing go fish with grandma. visiting and each time your hair had grown longer. and your kids had grown cuter. and feeling the love of Christ and his strength covering your entire family. thanking God for these memories and praying for you and the family as you move this weekend. love you. miss you I will always remember the first time I visited your home as we gathered for youth leader’s bible study. and the smell of fresh coffee and hazelnut Coffee Mate.

Be reminded that those memories will go with you held fondly forever in your heart. Be encouraged by all the new memories that will be created in your new home, to once again be held fondly in your heart forever. I will be praying for you as you leave this house and the memories triggered here for your new home and the memories to be created there!

It's so amazing, how we can get so attached to a home. They are us and we are them, in a way. I just know that you'll find your new home to be just as life-giving. Peace, friend. Lovely post.

I always said "home is where the hubby is" and now I have a son to add to that. I hope God brings you memories to cherish in your new home. They won't necessarily compare to the old, but they will be new and different and exciting I'm sure! My thought during your series of events was hosting the college-group summer bible study and homemade ice cream!!! So you can add that (plus Brian and I enjoyed keeping Asher when he was little)!

It's fun to think of the memories you will create over the next 7 years in your new home---the first day of school for Bear and Bella, Asher's first day of HIGH SCHOOL, big sporting events on your gigantic yard, lazy nights sipping lemonade on your front porch, the wonder of watching the weekly train go by, fresh fruit from your trees and veggies from the garden I KNOW you'll grow. Life is full of the bitter sweet. I'm so excited for you in your new home! Makes me think of the Billy Joel song, “You’re my Home”.
