House is officially on the market. Aside from the night we told our son, this may be the hardest part. Remembering back to how happy and excited we were 8 years ago when we bought this house. Ugh.

Even reading the listing, the realtor wrote 'absolutely stunning house in an elite neighborhood'. It still boggles my mind how someone could give that up in favor of a 1 bedroom apartment. How someone could give up safety and security for chaos. A loving spouse to 'play the field'. And most importantly, seeing their only child every day to essentially 6 months a year.

Somebody needs to do an in depth psychological study or something to really understand this mentality.
