We bought this house 11 years ago. It has been a good house. I could go on for hours about how much happiness this house has brought, how it has seen us through good and bad, how it has allowed so much... and it is all true. This is a good little house. But when 'we' moved in, 'we' were two adults and a cat. Now 'we' are four people, two of whom are growing at a rapid pace, and a cat and a dog.
This year-long remodeling project brought into clear focus how impossible it would be to remodel the main house, how long it would take, how much strain it would put on the family. And, yes, it helped us realize how much things cost when you are paying for the paint and the caulk and the dumpster and the people to drive out and then NOT be able to work because of rain... and all those little things.
We bought a bigger house. Yes, we did.
