A townhouse?? You?

I actually get this question a lot.

"You live in a townhouse?"

Yes, I do.

When K and I got married we moved into his townhome,

1.  It is completely paid for. Completely.

2. We have one child and it is the perfect size.

3. It is completely paid for.

When I was younger, I dreamed of a large Historical home on The Hill.  A house that would make all of my friends jealous, had large columns and was perfect for entertaining.  I wanted a large yard and a pool.

I didn't dream big or anything...

But I had that.  Well not quite to that size but I had a beautiful home in a desired neighborhood with a big yard that was great for entertaining and you know, while it was home and it was beautiful,

I now realize that anywhere you are with the people you love is home.

I was married to the Dood's dad for 9 years and we had many homes, each one of them was right for us in that time of life, just like the town home is perfect for K and me now.

I truly believe that a home is what you make it.

The townhouse may be cramped at times.

It may not have a large yard or columns.

and it is SERIOUSLY lacking some closet space.

BUT the other thing I love about it is that K worked really hard to pay off our townhome

and that enables us to go on great vacations and provide the dood with all the things he

needs in life and most of what he wants.

The people that I love more than anything in the world live there.

It is close quarters and I couldn't love that more.

I have seriously separation anxiety and I am A-OK with being close to my boys.

Do I still dream of that large historical dream home of the Hill?

Duh.

but right now, I just love being home with my boys.
