We went to visit our old house today. It's funny how the saying is so true that a house is just a building but a home is made up of the people (thank you miss madeline, I will always remember that "home is where the heart is"). A home often takes on the characteristics of its owners and each one is quite different. As we drove around the area to the library we passed the building that has the lake with the sand and the rocks and I thought to myself some things change but others seem to always stay the same. I'll always remember that building as the story of the parable of the house on the rocks and the sand, and of course, who could forget the kids song, "the wise man built his house upon the rocks, the foolish man built his house upon the sands...the rains came down and the floods came up, the house on the rocks stood strong but the house upon the sand went splat/flat!"
Here's a pic of my tree. It grew up just like me! It is now twenty years old and seems to have aged....
