A house and a home

1 Feb

well, the process has begun. We are leaving Birmingham in 3 weeks from today…so we have started packing and getting ready for the move. As we were taking apart our bookshelves i had the thought that we are making our home back into a house.

When we moved in it was a house….well, actually apartment, but regardless…it had white walls, plain everything…nothing on the walls, no decoration. But it was the first 2 years of our life together. and over those 2 years it became a home. the refuge. it became comfortable. the place we wanted to go at the end of a long and frustrating day.

but as we take things off the walls and the character of our home gets packed into cardboard boxes it becomes a house.

see, this is what i mean…

how long did it take for your house to become a home?
