It's funny how you realize the value of something once it may be gone. Or how you realize, "maybe I don't want to get ride of it" when all you've been trying to do, is just that.
This couch has been such a pain in my rear end since we have moved into our current place. (Please excuse my French.) It has taken up so much space in poor Abigail's room. I have thought of endless possibilities for what could go on that wall once it was gone. Not to mention how it doesn't match anything in her room.
But...
Today as Abigail and I snuggled before nap, I realized how much I've actually loved having this couch in her room. It may not match or fit very well but it's been were we sit every night as our little family of three to read books before bedtime, to kneel in front of to have family prayer. It's been where I snuggle with my little Sunshine before she takes a nap or goes to bed. It's been where I've slept when she's been sick and I didn't want her to sleep alone. It's where daddy and Abi sit together and read books when I'm at work. It's where extra guests sat when we blessed Abi because our front room is too small. So even though it's been such a nuisance, I'm going to miss not having this huge miss-matched couch in her room.
