The first picture was taken just a few days after we arrived in Seattle, August 2008. Then, we were staying with our friends who graciously and hospitably opened their home to us while we looked for a home of our own. Look at us. Younger. Thinking we are courageous for taking such a journey to unknown lands. In some ways we were. Yet, unknowing of the deconstruction that would take place in our lives.
The second picture was taken the day before the moving truck came to take all of our things back to Michigan for us, July 2011. Older. Wiser. More courageous for being deconstructed and beautifully put back together again. More honest. More real. More us.
