I also thought a lot about my actual home in Salt Lake City and how much I loved my house. Of course it had so much to do with my children and all the memories that I have of them. It sits in the middle of neighbors and friends and Church that I love so much. As the years have gone by, I have grown to love my home more and more.
But a funny thing happened to me. I left my home, my neighbors, my friends, my church, my children and I moved half way around the world, and I still feel like I am home. My children are still so much a part of my life, my friends still love me and support me. I am experiencing the joy of meeting new friends and neighbors who I am growing to love. The Church has filled an incredible void.
But I have realized the real reason that I feel like I am home is because of Scott. He is here with me, supporting me every day. He is so fun and funny, and we really enjoy each other's company. I am one lucky girl because no matter where I am, if Scott is with me, I am home.
Man apparently I should think twice about reading your blog while I am at work, now I have to explain to people why I am crying at my desk. Thanks a lot! ;) Love you, so happy you guys are happy there.

That is so sweet. That is exactly how Brock and I felt when we moved to Peachtree City. We were so far from friends and family, but we had each other, and that made everything okay.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sweetie! I feel the very same way about you.
