Contract

We reached an agreement on the house! I just signed my part and sent it off. Tomorrow I'll go and drop checks off at places and I just scheduled the inspection for Saturday! If all goes as planned, we will close on April 20th. They have asked for me to lease it back to them for a few days, which means I would be moving in on April 28th! That gives me two weeks to move stuff over to the new house and clean up the apartment. I can't believe it! I'm going to be a HOMEOWNER soon!

As exciting as this all is, there IS a part of me that is missing my mom even more than normal. The only reason I'm able to afford a home right now is because she passed away. There is so much going on in the Harwood family right now, and I know she would so enjoy being here for all the different excitement-- me buying a house, Holly getting ready to plan a wedding, Chase graduating highschool, along with lots of other things. These are the times she lived for- the times to live life with her kids. I miss her so much. I can only pray that I use this house to keep her memory alive.
