For not long after that cold winter, my family found a new home. A place where I can tend to the yard and enjoy playing catch with my son. A place that is safe and relaxing, even with the sound of the rumbling tractor scooping up golf balls at the distant driving range.
A place where we can enjoy planting flowers and watch as the birds take a dip in the bird bath while relaxing in the sunshine.
A place where we can welcome family and guests and catch up on all that makes life so wonderful. The sounds of neighborhood kids playing hockey in the street only to be interrupted by the bells of the ice cream truck turning the corner.
A place to hang my hat at the end of day and await the arrival of the morning paper in the driveway.
Time to catch that ice cream truck. Strawberry shortcake sounds so good.
