Well that time in a persons life has come, when their parents sell their childhood home. My parents are seriously considering moving to Henderson, Nevada within the year. I knew this day would come. They love Utah as much as I do. But I just can't comprehend never going "home" or never turning onto Jamiah Drive again. I have an emotional attachment to that house.
We've lived there as a family since I was 11. September 1997. Pretty much all of my major life achievements have happened at that house or at least were celebrated there. I can't imagine never walking into my room again. I spent countless hours there. It was my hideaway from the rest of the world. I loved everything about that room, even the pink carpet.
I guess it's just a part of growing up that I'm not prepared for. I didn't think the house would have such an impact on my life. I just hope that another family buys it and treats it with all the love and kindness we did. I find a little solace in the fact that brand new memories will be made there.

Wow, your parents are moving?! But they live so close to my parents! :(
At least you will be moving closer to me!! You will only be a mere state away instead of an entire country!
