Clocks With History

A home is not a home, without a special clock. In my home, we have six clocks and I wouldn’t want to give up any of them. Each clock has a meaning and history that comes with it which is why we hold on to them. Clocks don’t just tell time, they tell a story. Like the one in our kitchen. My husband made it years ago for one of his sisters. She ended up returning it to him because it didn’t match the décor in her home. I love the clock because my husband put so many hours into it and he made it completely from scratch. We have another clock that we bought one year for our anniversary. It’s beautiful and I love to hear it chime. But I’m missing one clock. I would love to be able to say that I owned grandfather clocks. I want one that would be almost as tall as the ceiling and in a rich, dark brown color. I would place in it a corner in my living room so I could sit and listen to it chime. I want my children to grow up and remember listening to the chimes throughout the day. Then when the time comes, I would give the clock to one of them. I see grandfather clocks as a part of heritage thanks to my grandfather who owned one. I love them and want to own one someday.
