Laura, this essay is beautiful. It made me think of some of the furniture in my house that came from my parents' home when I was growing up. It's nice to have the furniture of course, but even more special to have the memories they evoke. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Kaarin. I have quite a few pieces of my grandparents' furniture and dishes in my house. Some of it is nearing 75 years old and it's still the best quality pieces I own. Plus I love having the memories attached to all of it.
Your ability to describe a scene is just so incredible. I could visualize everything in this room. I often wonder what my children will remember of their childhood home, and the items in it.
