Corner View – “Front Door”

Let’s face it. My mom is more creative than I in these meme sort of things. So I enjoy trying to think of something different than she would.

After seeing her taking pictures of our front door, I thought that that would have been a good idea. But, alas, I was too late.  :P

 

So, I decided to carry on my theme from last week. A tribute to my grandparents’ house.

In the winter, I admit, the door seems rather bleak. But if you imagine the bushes beside it in full bloom and a brightly colored American flag in the flag holder, you can see it’s very beautiful. Or at least in the eyes of this beholder. :)
 

I have many memories sitting on the front steps. My sister and I singing

“Yellow car,
yellow car,
thank you, God,
for yellow car”

for every single car that passed. Memories of my dad and I counting all the red cars, or all the blue cars. I can barely hear the peals of laughter as the girl cousins hang on the railings pretending to escape the “flood”.

It’s times like these that you realize that it’s not the house that’s wonderful. But the wonderful people that filled it. <3
