Moving On


We have our closing for our old house tomorrow. Today Bowie and I went to say goodbye. I touched the walls of each room and said thanks for the shelter, the memories, the lives we lived there. I touched the spot of the floor where Bowie was born and cried. This house will be torn down and new one built there. I have some sadness about that to be sure. But we are so thrilled with our new home that I really can walk away with more joy than regret.

oh, the spot on the floor where he was born. that touches me. i know the feeling of saying goodbye to that spot, closing the door to one home, and welcoming new memories through another door. bittersweet.

Wow, Autumn, that made me cry. I feel your sadness at leaving your home, but am so happy that you are loving your new one.
