Finally Home...

Sitting here at the computer this morning, looking around at our "home", I am experiencing a warm, happy moment.  Tears are filling my eyes.  Since we moved into my parents place last November, it has been difficult for me to really settle in and think of this as our "home".  It's always been Mom and Dad's, and I have always referred to it as that.  It's the place that I lived for most of my life, where I grew up, and left to go out on my own, to return to when I needed a place to go, a sanctuary of sorts...  to Mom and Dad's.....

Now, I'm looking at it as something different.  It will always be Mom and Dad's place...  but now I'm looking around and seeing it as our "home".  We have put a lot of work and energy to make it the way we wanted it.  David and I worked together to make this our "home", but yet I couldn't even think of it as that.  Don't get me wrong, I love this place, and I love what we have done to make it ours.   But I just couldn't get there...

I think the release of resentment and anger toward God this past weekend has softened my heart so that I can see this place, Mom and Dad's place....  as our "new home".  Tears, joy, love....  that's what I am experiencing right now...

Welcome "home"..............
