Ok, so over the past week, I have had the should I/ shouldn't I thoughts. Should we sell? But the flowers are starting, the grass is greening up..... blah blah blah. Then again today, ok, but if I move, just think of how much attention I could pay to a smaller garden, rather than be a slave to over an acre of property and gardens! Decisions Decisions. After much debate and a few tears, we are going to just go with the flow. I am going to submit to the whim of the world. If the right buyer comes along and offers the right price for my house, then apparently fate is stepping in and it is meant to be. If no offers come in and we go with the flow, then we are meant to raise our family in this house and will continue to move forward. I will not be a slave to the house and the potential buyers out there ready to view it- if you come for a showing and I have dishes in the sink and toys all over the floor, just step over the barbies and xylophone and look around you. You are here to look at my house, not my housekeeping capabilities, right? I am a mommy of 2 beautiful girls, and we are enjoying our life in our too big house. If you are not happy with the fact that I did not pick up a toy prior to your visit, oh well, buy it yourself and you can keep it as organized and un-lived-in as you like! I love this house, but I could definitely love another house. It is not the house that makes the home, afterall, it is the people inside.
My 5 year old daughter got a new pet today. A RAT! OMG, what was I thinking? This little rodent is adorable, I must say. Though she will be growing, and I am sure faster than we want, she is pretty cute right now. My daughter LOVES her! She is singing to her, cuddling her, rocking her and talking to her as if she is her baby. It really seems to be going great. I was hesitant about a rat, I mean, come on people- A RAT? Then after hearing about the benefits of how inteligent they are, how social they are, that they tend to not bite, vs a hamster or a gerbil that definite WILL bite, the cards were played. My little girl insisted on a rat, and I gave in to the whim.
Apparently this is my thing- if it is meant to be, it will be. Que Sera Sera!
