Falling in Love with Gram’s House

So far, our work on Gram’s house has been simple but steady, pulling up old carpet and peeling back wallpaper, room by room. It doesn’t sound glamorous, and truthfully, it’s hard work. But with every strip of wallpaper that comes down and every floor revealed beneath the carpet, I find myself falling deeper in love with this home.

I’ve always loved Gram’s house, but now that I’m getting my hands dirty, that love feels different. It’s growing stronger. Each visit makes it easier to picture what the rooms will look like once they’re finished, bright, welcoming, and full of life again.

We’re still at the very beginning, but even now, I can feel it. This isn’t just a renovation project, it’s the start of bringing new life into a place that already means so much.
