Our new home...

No matter where I have lived there has been no place like home! I love being at home with my loved ones spending quality time together. When I am away from home for a long period of time, I am always ready to get back to the familiar...my bed, my shower, my kitchen, my comfy chair! I have only had a few homes in my life...two houses with my family, a college dorm room, two college apartments, one apartment after college, one apartment with my husband, one house with my husband and son, and now we are onto a new adventure in another apartment. Last week, my husband, son and I loaded up all our belongings a wonderful moving company packed and loaded all our belongings and we headed from our home in Mississippi to our new home in Texas. It was hard to leave our home in Mississippi because it was the first house my husband and I bought, we brought our son home from the hospital to that house, and we learned many lessons in that house about life, finances, each other, and parenting. Even though I will miss our first house, I am finding my place in my new home! A house is not characterized by the four walls, but by the people who live in it. As we are unpacking boxes and making our new apartment a home I am reminded that my time on earth is limited for I have an eternal home in Heaven. There truly is no place like home!
