Is a Full House a Happy House?

This week, I decided to watch Fuller House. I didn’t grow up in what you would call a full house, but my house was indeed pretty chaotic. A family of four in a decently small house might not seem chaotic at the time, but trust me, we had our fair share of butting heads.


In Fuller House “Our Very First Show, Again”, the Tanner family reunites after D.J. loses her husband who was a firefighter. Joey returns to Las Vegas, Danny and Becky host a show in Los Angeles, and Jesse also goes back to Los Angeles to work as a music supervisor on General Hospital. They all overhear D.J. express her concern of being a single mom for three boys. Everyone offers to drop their lives to help out but then Stephanie tells them it is her turn to help out. In the middle of a divorce from her husband who was cheating on her, Kimmy decides to stay and play nanny even though she has a child of her own, Ramona.


Like I said before, unlike them, I did not grow up in a super full house, and neither did you but even though the house wasn’t full in the sense of physical bodies it was filled with warmth and love…. Until it’s not. We did fight a lot in the family. Maybe not specifically you and me but it seemed like everyday someone was butting heads with someone else, and it made for some tough times in the house. Just like in the show, though, everyone in our family would be willing to drop everything to help out when someone needs it.


Although I hope that it never happens, but there might be some time when something happens and I want you to know that I would drop everything in a heartbeat to help you or the family. No matter how many times we butt heads I know that you will always love me and that we have each other’s backs.
