The butterfly

"The butterfly symbolizes transformation and joy. Its dance reflects the need for movement from where we are to our next phase of being." It dawned on me the other day, as I stared at our little house that we purchased 4 1/2 years ago, that the wrought iron decoration which we hung on the outside, had butterflies in it. We purchased the house because we loved the location and talked of one day building a new home on the property. At that time, it was just something we put "out there". A fleeting thought or idea, really. And it was not until I sat with my amazing friend Kate, outside our house, that I noticed the butterflies and what they meant to me at that moment...It has taken some big decisions and many bumps along the way, but we excited to begin the project of building our home. We look forward to watching the transformation.
