It's 5:00 am and I am laying in bed thinking back to a special moment build site one had.
We had just finished the foundation walls and asked our home owner if we
could put a Canadian coin in the foundation for good luck. Rob supplied a
toonie and our team gathered with the home owner. We took a moment to think of
all of the people who supported us on this journey and made being here possible.
We took a moment and looked around at our build site location with the rice
fields beside us and grove of trees and acknowledged how lucky we were to be
here and to be working with each other and we wished for health and happiness
for the home owners. It was an emotional moment and I will admit I shed a few
tears.
After the home owner placed our toonie in the foundation he told us how he
also placed a silver and gold coin in the adjoining post for good luck. The
post is also marked with a gold symbol and tied with two ropes. All to bring
good luck to the home.
I will remember this moment for years to come.
