Living at Papa's
In my last post, I mentioned that we sold our house, and were by definition homeless. Well it is not entirely true. We are not living on the street, or in a shelter or even in a tent on our property. We have been taken in by my grandfather, who lives alone in his home on Lake Washington in Bellevue. Rachel and I both really enjoy it here, as we have had the chance to get to know Papa a little better, ad have our kids get to know him period. It's kind of hard for the generations to come together sometimes, especially when we only see each other on Sunday and the holidays Papa is in town. He often travels between Witchita and here for extended periods of time. In fact, he will be leaving in a few weeks, and then we will have the whole house to ourselves. But while we have been here together, Papa has been very accommodating. Rachel and I have our own bedroom and bathroom, the kids have a room that they share, the formal living room has been turned into the kids play area, ect. Our family has sort of come in and occupied the space in this house that Papa wasn't using. It has been nice.
