We're Home.

What wonderful words! Almost like an exhalation, it always brings this cozy feeling of warmth, safety, and happiness. After a long journey it's almost like heaven to be able to say those words, like a prayer, and really mean it. For the past 6 months, I've missed those words. I've been anxious to say them but I wanted to wait until I really meant it. God has provided us a wonderful house to live in but until today it wasn't home. Today, I woke up and realized that I was home, not because we're all unpacked, or organized, or even slightly clean, (LOL) but because our home is finally a place where we want to be. We've made it home just by living here! The clutter of life is all around us and it feels good to finally be able to say, "We're home."

I so know this feeling...I always wait for it to arrive after each move....

After this move, I wasn't sure it would ever come! I would walk around thinking, "This is not my house!" Now, I'm happy and hope that we can live here a long while.
