Digging In
There is something quite different about owning versus renting. I feel settled here, at peace knowing we will be staying for quite some time. Instead of a neighborhood where I simply lived, even though generations of my family lived there before me, by owning a home, this is really my neighborhood. I’m invested in it and as surely as the old trees have upheaved the sidewalks, I’m letting my roots spread out with confidence and ease.
