–Tietjen house

This house is the home to part of my minnesota family…their home feels like my home so many days…i can be me here…I am loved with my flaws and all…i have a friend who extends her life and family to me with open arms…my beautiful godson lives here and his adorable big brother tells me often “I love you so much”…and in my world these words are rarely spoken with such heart and gusto…i find refuge in these walls in the ghetto…i am warmed by the joy and chaos of this lovely family and I can’t even imagine what life here would be like without this happy place…
