If we sold the Park Slope house, Kevin could afford to take a year off from work and spend more time with the kids and he could help me start my consulting business. We put the Park Slope house on the market in April 2004, and it sold in 10 seconds. |
So we decided we would move to the country. |
We had a love-hate relationship with that house. It was dark, and the vertical living got to me with three small kids. We spent all our time in the kitchen and never used the parlor floor at all. Every night, we'd climb the mountain, 43 steps, to put the kids to bed. |
