What makes my house a home?

A Perfect Gray posted this adorable photo from her home:

Its these little personal things in a house that make them more than just a hotel room. Its these things that make them Home.

I told A Perfect Gray I would participate in this, but I had to think outside the box because my apartment is new and I have only been living here for a year and a half. Even the furniture is new (except for the antiques!)

SO what makes my house a home, aside from all our clutter and crap, is this little girl. Here she is looking into her tiny closet. She LOVES clothes, shoes (shoe-ys as she calls them), purses and jewelry. So, in other words, she is NOTHING like me! But I think the key to being a parent is learning to accept your child for who they are, and not to project your expectations onto them. I guess that is easier said than done. But thats what I am going for.
Heaven & Home.

Adorable! That little diapered bottom standing in front of the closet with all that PINK! so sweet. You are right, it’s the people living there who make a house a home, especially the ‘little people.’ Thank you so much, Nicole, for participating. You added so much to the idea!

The pink clothes thing seems so insane when you look at it all together.
