Building Furniture

Building a home together

Sitting together on the living room floor

Flipping through the manual hoping it to make sense

Making this place our own

Putting all the pieces together an analogy to our lives

Started out apart and moved closer to each other until we became one

Now we're sitting up late at night building another piece of furniture
