Today is our anniversary. 15 years. That feels like a big deal. Increments of 5 always feel monumental. 15 years. All spent in Portland. Two houses, four kids later. An SUV then a Mini Van. All about us became so much about them. And we are here. Sometimes barely getting by and yet, in it together. It wasn't a fancy anniversary. We swore we would always make this day about us until we neglected to do so. It happens. We aren't proud. But today, our celebration was about the risk that we are taking signing papers and passing the torch on our current house, in a place that we love and starting a new adventure with our family. Because it is about us. It is about them. And it is about home. Wherever we choose for that to be.
