The house

We found a house we love. And today the sellers accepted our offer! I am kind of in shock. I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up since we have 2 hurtles left to conquer before its a done deal (inspections) but its hard not too! I have started packing and organizing things we don't use often as well as starting a collection of items to donate to a thrift store. I am really surprised at how bittersweet this feels. I really did not expect to have any sad feelings about leaving this house. But the reality is that when we moves in five years ago, it was just the two of us and my heart was broken since our miscarriage was just weeks prior. It wasn't really a happy time. We fixed this house up a bit before moving in and often times I was here alone painting baseboards and barely being able to see out of my swollen, foggy eyes. When I think about leaving here (four weeks from tomorrow! Yikes!!!!) I am just so grateful that we will be bringing 6 extra tiny feet (& 4 paws) with us. Not only that but we will be moving to a home I really love. I kind of wonder why we deserve to be blessed so richly. But I'm thankful for every bit of it. March 29 can't get here fast enough! I will be relieved when the process is over and we are settled into our new home. Keep crossing your fingers for us as we make it thru inspections next week!
