The girls have had a lot of questions lately surrounding the idea of one day being home owners and not always living with Greg and me.
It’s a tough concept for children ages seven and four to grasp. It’s also a sad one for all involved.
The girls almost get to the point where they are sobbing about who they will be stuck marrying, where their houses will be and why they can’t just live here forever. We have created some rules to keep things light and plan ahead for a great future.
- The girls will buy homes next door or directly across the street from us.
- Hanna and her husband will live with us until said piece of real estate becomes available.
- Greg and I will purchase a dog the day Ellie graduates from Veterinary College and she will take care of the puppy.
- Ellie will have barbecues at her house where she will serve Greg chicken wings and beer.
- Ellie will visit us every day, unless…..she has plans.
- Ellie will cancel her plans to care for the dog that has chewed up our furniture, scratched our floors and shed hair everywhere.
- Ellie will clean up after the dog eats a package of raw, ground beef.
