I Chose West Virginia for You, Child

I was born and raised here, but married a man from North Carolina and lived there with him for several years.  Once I had a child, West Virginia called to me like I wouldn’t have believed.

Where we love is home,
Home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.
~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

If you’re from here, I bet you understand.

    Hey, Sarah:

    I understand! When people ask me where I live I say St. Louis, but when they ask were I’m from, I will always say West Virginia. Thanks.
