Tonight, I am sitting here quietly on my bed, just waiting for sleep to come. My dog is snuggled up at my feet, my sons are tucked in their bunk beds and my daughter is probably laying on her bed texting with all her friends. It seems to be so lonley here this week even with the kids surrounding me. I am not really happy and not really sad, just here existing with all the world around me. I have thought about many different things this week. Things that I don't understand, things I can't control, things I love, things I do not like, but still confusion enters my frazzled mind. As I try to figure out my life and the paths I seem to wander down, I came across this wonderful old house and had to share it.
It looks a little lonely and a little sad...kinda the way I feel tonight. I think with some TLC from just the right person, it would spring back to a wonderful home with people enjoying life. If the walls could talk, I bet it would tell stories of days gone by. Children running around playing under that big tree. The porch with a grandma in a rocking chair with sewing in her lap. The smell of bread in the oven. Laughter and happiness bursting from everywhere. Just a simple wonderful life!

I think we all have moments like that.. I know after myy divorce and before marrying Dave I was always afraid of making a wrong choice.. I wanted to make a better life for my kids... even now.. sometimes...Late at night when I'm waiting and hoping for sleep to come.. I still wonder if I made good choices..But we don't get do overs in life.. we have to make the best choice for the right here and right now.. I think we all do the best we can with what we have.. I love the old house.. I bet there was a swing in that tree!
