Oh Chloe, I feel it. Especially when I read we moved there with a 40 foot container and moved back to the US with suitcases. 13 suitcases but also not all at once. It’s so sad! We are people of habit. God created us with the ability to make things and craft things and express ourselves in the things we have ‘round and us . . . As Maureen O’Hara told John Wayne in the film, the Quiet Man.
I won’t be one to tell you that your childhood is within you not in “things” but cold comfort that. No! Everyone else has “stuff” they get to keep and move their stuff. Why do people put undue “punishing” burdens on Christian families?
I’m sorry you lost your childhood—parts and pieces and reminders of it.
