When words are more than words.

I am pretty well adjusted to living in Georgia these days. In fact, I am crazy in love with this place. Don't tell my husband, because someday down the road we will end up back north to be with my brothers and all the little rugrats they will have by then, running around and raising hell in Massachusetts.  Family. There's a word that is so much more than just a word. Think of all the words you say each day. Which ones make you stop and have a feeling? Family makes my heart beat so loudly and proudly that I admit I find myself trying to find ways to squeeze it into a sentence just so I can say it. Family. Just six letters, but more meaning to me than maybe anything else in my life. Here are just some of the amazing people in my family!

I love the above picture but I am heartbroken that my future sister-in-law is not in there, so I'm adding a picture just for her! Here she is at my wedding with my parents.

Another word that I'll admit I have been a little confused about lately is the word home. I'm so torn. Is Massachusetts my home, or is Georgia? Can it be both? Right now I admit I use the word to describe both places. When I say the word, the first place that comes to mind is Massachusetts. But, Georgia is where I live, so it's my home too. I know it's not a big deal, but I find myself feeling irked every time I use it when I talk about Georgia. Home is where the heart is, so they say, and while I visit my family in MA Eric is here, so I will continue to use the word to reference both places.

When I look at the word, I will always go back to my younger days and think of all the things that happened in MA that made me the person I am today. It is such an important place to me, and will always be my forever home.

This is not a real sign, but it makes me laugh since we have the reputation of being terrible drivers! Those crazy Massholes! I am proud to be one!
