And This Is Home.

So today I came home to good ole Baird Texas. I love this place so much. The past couple of times I've come home, I've really started to notice a lot of the small things that really didn't mean much to me before when I lived here.

- Passing people on the street in town, and knowing every single one of them.
- Daddy's hugs.
- That unique smell of your own house that's different from anything else.
- The comfort of the couch in the living room.
- Seeing your room and it looking exactly the way it did when you left it the last time.
- What it sounds like when mom gets home from work.
- Backyard cookouts.
- The smell of mom's perfume.
- S'mores!!
- Solving the problems of the world with mom and dad.
- Having long talks with mom about life, love, Jesus, relationships, and everything else under the sun.
-The fresh smell of clean towels.
- Curling up in your own warm bed, knowing you're totally going to have sweet dreams.
- Home cooking.

Just a few of many small things that mean so much to me now that I'm not around it all the time. It's kind of bittersweet in a way. But I absolutely love being home. I love knowing everyone that I run into in town. I love the feeling of knowing this is home, and there really is no place like home.

Anywho, these were my thoughts of the day. ;)



Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
