Closure is one of those things that occurs before celebrating new beginnings. So last week, Bobby and I had already bid farewell to the movers, our stuff was long gone and we were left in an empty shell of what once was our Home Sweet Home.

After we finished with the cleanup of all the rooms in the house, we were left standing in the beautifully clean kitchen. It was then that our eyes met and he held me with his eyes and he came to me with open arms and said “Thanks for making this house a home Debbie”. And that’s all it took for me to let the tears fall. It was a beautiful closure that evening and when we walked out that door, we never walked back into the house again. Even though we had to return to the garage to put some trash out to the curb, we never walked back into the house from that embrace on. It was over and we will always hold on to the wonderful memories that were made.

Yesterday was the official closing for the new owners and we wish them a wonderful new beginning in that home up on a hill.
