Settling In

I wish that all of the boxes were unpacked and everything in its proper place.  I wish that I could say with confidence that I know where everything is and even more so, that I "liked" where everything was placed.  I wish the house felt like my favorite pair of slippers; you know the ones that you put on that are not only cozy to the toesies but cute too!  The fact of the matter is I have to keep reminding myself that our house is a work in progress.  It takes time because I want it to feel right.  Just like my slippers, I want the house to be a place where people come in and feel comfortable, warmly welcomed and at home.  It will get there just a few more boxes...
