But I have had the feeling that I had been in a place that I thought I was visting for the first time. If that makes sense? I know if I get to come back I would like to come back to my home now or the farm I grew up on.

A child's death is always sad. I am a believer though, in many things that cannot be explained by science or logic. Lucky you to be able to continue to see the house of your dreams. Love the lavender hedge too. :-)<br />FrancesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723797518858451239.post-52430212035518522782009-08-27T12:16:00.200-07:002009-08-27T12:16:00.200-07:00Yes, Deb, who knows - perhaps!Yes, Deb, who knows - perhaps!JOHN SHORTLAND, Cotswold Hills, England.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11702000270961029986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723797518858451239.post-42765487362720720382009-08-27T06:31:16.319-07:002009-08-27T06:31:16.319-07:00Anything is possible and that's why I love sto...Anything is possible and that's why I love stories like this.
