I didn't expect to get so emotional. A house that held so much financial burden to us - all of sudden became very hard to say goodbye to. I don't know how to explain it....
I just saw this young mom holding a two year old girl on her lap during closing and I just kept seeing myself in her shoes holding Olivia in 2009 when we purchased it. I just kept hugging her and pouring my heart out to this mom about all the memories I had there. (Justin kept kicking me under the table and later told me I creeped her out) but he just doesn't understand..
The young mom embraced my stories and promised me she would take great care of it and fill it with love and laughter. We also swapped numbers and she told me the kids and I could come by anytime we wanted to.
Once again, I was reminded that there are so many good people in the world that have compassion for each other.
Enjoy Bernard family! The house will surely feel like home to you in no time.
God bless...
