Harvey Happenings

Sometimes is gets old being the new person. Sometimes you just want to be with people who know you and understand you, who you can relax with and be yourself. Because they know who yourself is. So you don't have to talk about where you moved from and how many kids you have and what your husband does. You can just sit and be together and be comfortable and talk about anything.

It's just nice sometimes to be around people who know

But it's also nice to meet new people and make new friends. To learn new things and have new experiences. To meet people who teach you something you may never have learned otherwise. To remember what it feels like to be uncomfortable and awkward so you don't forget to include those who feel the same. To redecorate a new house and throw out all your old junk. To get closer together as a family and to bond in new ways with the ones you love most. To spend more time at home and being together. To realize your kids are some of your best friends. To find new wonders and love new places. To make another space where you belong.
