A Mix of Old and New

He has his memories

I have mine.

His involve marriage, parenthood, a soul-deep love for his first wife and a spirit breaking love and loss of a child. all heartbreakingly tragic and painful

Mine include relationships tried and lost as well family struggles.

It has taken us a long time to get to where we are comfortable enough with each other to peel back our innermost layers of memories no matter how painful,

Every day, we add new memories to our mixture of old – to each other's lives – and the walls of the house we call home.
