Love Makes a House a Home

author: unknown
Even though he was single, at age thirty-two Bill decided it was time to buy a house. He found a modestly priced four-bedroom home and began to visualize how he could use the rooms. Few months later, however, he found himself engaged to marry a woman who had three young daughters. Two years after their marriage, Bill and his wife, Dee had a baby. The gym and TV room he had envisioned in his new house never materialized!

It took Billy and Dee four jobs to pay for life they had chosen, but although their schedules were relentless, Bill couldn’t help but conclude, “Ain’t life grand?” Eventually, his stepdaughters began to leave home and Bill once again made plans for the spare rooms in the house. But his elderly parents needed help, and Bill and Dee, invited them to move in. Even in getting up night to help his ailing father, Bill still was of the opinion, “Ain’t life grand?”

After more than twenty-five years, Bill still doesn’t have his “dream house”. What he has had, however, is two decades of REAL HOME.
