Home is people and memories and feeling comfortable in your own skin. It's familiarity and history and (usually) knowing what to expect.
Me - 4 months (1980)
Home is in Oregon and Washington, but also in Wyoming and Costa Rica. Home is places I've never been because I have friends who live there that are home.
2 years - 1982
Home is relaxing and comforting. Staying up too late and never getting through all the things you want to in one day.
1984 - where I think Noah looks like my brother
(maybe it's just the hair!)
Home is the scents and sounds and textures from times gone by that all come rushing back in a moment when you didn't even realize they were missing or you'd forgotten them.
Home is where the people are.
1988 - Where I think Cory looks like my brother
We are definitely in the 80's style here... yikes!
This week I've been going through things at my parent's house for a garage sale and general clean up and came across an old photo album. It was a collection of portraits that had been sent to my grandparents over the years and we got back after they passed away.
