(turned the main photo house to black/white because when I lived in the house we had it painted light gray with charcoal gray shutters)
Text reads:
The family home...it belonged to the boys' great grandparents for 50 years; their grandmother was born and raised there, and then their dad bought it. We lived there after we were married, and when the boys were born...a total of 10 years. The boys attended the same elementarty school and high school as their grandmother had. Despite it being a small house, I could have been happy there forever and the mortgage was low enough to afford easily. The life changed: we bought another house and rented this one out. Then a few months later, my husband left me for another woman. A few years later they moved into this house. Although, they finished the basement and changed all the colors, it still wasn't big or fancy enough for the new wife, so they bought another house and again rented this one out. Today I found out they sold it. They got an amazing price, so it's understandable, but this house will be torn down and replaced with a multiple housing unit. A piece of the boys' family history will disappear. And for some reason, it makes me sad.
