a house is not a home

We spent two days cleaning our old house. We shampooed carpets, patched nail holes in the walls, cleaned windows, etc. I think we left the house cleaner than when we moved in! And out landlord must agree, because we got our entire deposit back!

While we were painting and cleaning the new house and packing and moving the old house, we made several trips a day between the two and the kids always wanted to know where we were going. So we would tell them either "the new house" or "home." Now, if Zach asks where we are going and we say home he gets very upset. When we say "home" we mean our new home, but Zach insists we call our new home our "house."

That is so cute! It must be strange for them to have a new place. We can't wait to see it! Love you guys!
