Done!

The last thing to come out of the house was the wicker "set" just inside the kitchen door. It was the "gathering place"...the place to sit and talk...to share special secrets, sorrows, happiness, and just to visit. I knew it would be hard to move it. It had to wait until last. It made the house a home....my home. But now it will be someone else's home - a home filled with children playing and laughing and parents loving. It feels strange to have to knock on the door now instead of just walking in the back door. Time will ease the pain; good memories will ease the sorrow. The "set" will find it's place in our home now - a special place that will welcome people and allow them to sit and chat. New memories and joys will be created. But the special times and love shared in those seats will never be forgotten. I miss you, Mom.
