Home is Where the Heart Is

Home is where the heart is ... this I keep telling myself is the truth.  We did not get the house. There were four bids.  We came in second. I don't know yet by how much but it is painful.  I look at the house every day that I go outside. It is just down the road.  My husband says it is just material things. Yes, true.  But  a house is where you build a home for your children .. I saw them sleeping in their beds and playing the back yard.  I'm a bit disheartened about the whole process. This is the third house we have lost but the one I wanted the most.  Chin up.
