Yvonne did read your comment and was very touched by the fact that her story affected you. She hopes that in time you will be able to embrace your home. She says it did not happen instantly for her...that it has taken time. She is four years into it. I know from the great losses in my life that it takes years to adjust. Everyone says the first year is the hardest but what they don't tell you is the second is just has hard....but you are used to feeling sad.<br /><br />I hope things get better with you. I hope you can give your little cottage some love. Yvonne and I are both so happy that her story made you think of things in a different light.<br /><br />NitaNita Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833196166679983378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-78183229771052315202010-10-19T19:12:25.902-05:002010-10-19T19:12:25.902-05:00What a beautiful home and such a sweet love story....What a beautiful home and such a sweet love story. :) Thanks for sharing with us.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05728612514516285320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-10949269097472629752010-10-18T16:55:28.805-05:002010-10-18T16:55:28.805-05:00I cannot tell you how heavy my heart is right now....I cannot tell you how heavy my heart is right now. I read Yvonne's story, and her wonderful outlook, how she feels her husband meant to have her in that home, and I am ashamed. My husband died suddenly of a heart attack 2 years after we moved into this little waterfront cottage. I unfortunately, looked at it differently. I felt if we had not moved here, yada yada, that he might still be alive, and blamed everything on this old house. I let it go, I'm ashamed right now how much I let it go, but everytime I worked on it, it reminded me of him and I cried and cried. Yvonne has made me realize that loving and nurturing this little home might be just what Mike wanted for me. I so wish she had a blog so I could tell her that, yes, it took a perfect stranger for me to appreciate what my dear husband saw and wanted for us. Thank you, Yvonne, from the bottom of my heart, and oh, I sure do wish you would start blogging about your beautiful home, and your beautiful outlook on life.Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09556412930454472879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-69545027849388727492010-10-18T14:49:16.854-05:002010-10-18T14:49:16.854-05:00I'm pretty sure this story touched so many hea...I'm pretty sure this story touched so many hearts.

Rarely seen in a tudor revival which makes this house so interesting. It's a mix of styles and yet it works beautifully. I love the yellow stone which is something I wouldn't expect to love. <br /><br />I'm hoping she'll send some photos of other rooms too. I'd really like to see that garden room with it's black and white floor.Nita Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833196166679983378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-11284371269291840652010-10-17T17:27:23.760-05:002010-10-17T17:27:23.760-05:00omg, i don't know what i love more, the house ...omg, i don't know what i love more, the house or her beautiful story. you just never know what is going to happen in this life. i'm so happy her husband got his mustang before he had a place to keep it and was able to enjoy it.<br /><br />now on to the house. again, omg. how gorgeous, inside and out. i adore the front entrance. what is that window over the door called? i just love it! i have a passion for black and white floors so i'm in love and would like to see more for sure.<br /><br />having a blog is a lot of work but i sure wish she would reconsider.<br /><br />thanks for bringing this story to our attention.<br /><br />~janetthe gardener's cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447809353998632722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518721847478228439.post-86002337284035104162010-10-17T17:17:34.947-05:002010-10-17T17:17:34.947-05:00Such a wonderful story.
