Before he put the new pine planks down he gave us all permanent markets so we could draw on the floor. We traced our bodies, drew pictures of our house and pets, wrote silly poems etc. Since then when ever a floor comes up or a wall comes down before we cover it up again we leave something there. Pictures, notes etc. I love imagining that someday someone will find it. I hope they frame it and keep it with the house. Maybe they have a picture of the pond as well...

And to date, no notes.
