It may look empty, but it is quite the opposite. It is actually full...full of love, of hope, of memories. It's full of a lot of firsts...Of Sean's and my first home, where we came after we were married and got back from our honeymoon. Of decorating a baby's nursery and then his big boy room.
The first home both SE and Finley were brought to after being born and coming home from the hospital.
Full of first steps, first laughs, first cries, first words...full of memories of cuddling sweet babes, story times, birthday parties, Christmases, art projects. Golf games, baseball games, basketball and football. Of tents being made, dance parties being had, boo boos being kissed, tears being cried, laughter ringing loud, and love, lots and lots of love. Full of sweet mornings and good nights...one last prayer, story, cuddle, nosey kiss, I love you. Full of the last checks on the sleeping babes before Sean and I go night night ourselves.
Full of sweet friends and one sweet, sweet family for whom I'm so incredibly thankful. The house may look empty, but it is bursting because it's so full of love.
And ready and waiting for the next family to make as many memories and have as much love as we did. So long first home. May you be ever as great to the next family as you were to us!
