There’s a vacant, abandoned and neglected house on my street that is an embarrassment to my community. It’s an enormous house sitting empty and neglected for over a year.
The original owners lost the house to foreclosure and the house went from a loved family home to an eyesore literally overnight. By the time the bank took the house over, a year had passed.
Just in the past few months, the house went on the market and quickly sold for an incredible price. On closing day, I saw the caravan driving thru the neighborhood to get to their new house – a uhaul truck and two cars filled to the brim. The caravan arrived at their new home, popped out of the car and straight to the front door. What a welcome sight – a family moving in!
From across the street, I could see piles of boxes and furniture packed in each room. Then I saw the sweetest thing…a row of beanie babies lining the window sill. The little boy who would now call this home had staked his claim.
