I mean I knew it would be. Our home reduced to rubble. Laying waste for the next big thing. It made me really sad when I first saw it. It took my breath away. I just couldn't believe I agreed to this. Take my house, all my memories, and tare it down.
sigh...
For those of you who don't know we are using our land to development a culdesac. Between our neighbors and our land we are putting in 5 houses. It's a scary proposition, but one that is turning out to be very good for us. Adam has already had tons on interest just since the houses came down and thinks he has the lots sold.
Although I know it is a great thing we are doing and such a good investment i will miss my house terribly. I will miss eating at the nook. I will miss playing in the back. I will miss the old, but reliable tree swings. I will miss having all the kids on one floor. I will miss our flat circular driveway the kids would ride their bikes on. I will miss hearing the pond waterfall at night. I will miss so many things, but most of all I will miss us there. I loved that house.
I suppose a house is just a house and it's only a home when your loved ones are there. I'm looking forward to the day we can show our girls what we've created.
when i can find the time i will look for the photo of my house so you can see what it originally looked like. i took the photos pre-digital.
