After 30 years in our home, where we brought up our boys who are now fathers,we have turned it over to new owners. Hopefully they will bring up their children in the house that loved us. Hopefully they will wander the halls with dreams of their own, will play in the yard and swim in the pool. Hopefully they will feed the birds and create stories of their own in the gardens I loved. Hopefully all the good that is in the core of that house will seep it's way into their lives. I wish them well.
Tully on the other hand went kicking and barking. She had to make friends with her reflection in the floor to ceiling windows that seemed to follow her everywhere. Once that was accomplished she has found a sunny spot in the front hall where she watches her new world go by. She loves the new wet walks on the sandy shell filled beach and chasing the shorebirds. She now sleeps closer to us at night but I think that will pass once she gets braver in her new world.
And our new world looks beautiful to us. We are happy here. We can finally call this place our home.
