We lived there all through school and brought two babies home to that house. When we graduated and built our new house I was super excited to move into my newer, bigger, and better house, but totally cried when we left that dumpy place. That's when I realized it's not the house you'll miss... it's the memories. As cheesy as that sounds, I think the thing that makes us weepy when we leave an old house behind is just that we're leaving a piece of our past behind us and the memories we created there. Trust me, I cried while walking out of an old, double wide trailer, so I can totally understand where you (and your mom) are coming from. :)Jenn J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00843207734745624003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-43791336877205053432010-06-17T13:56:01.294-07:002010-06-17T13:56:01.294-07:00I can see be emotional about leaving a house with ...I can see be emotional about leaving a house with so much history.

I think you will always remember all of the fun memories. It was a large chunck of your life.
