Today is so gorgeous... after so many days of threatening weather, rain and torrents of rain.... It felt so good to just breathe in the sweet fresh morning air.....
Coffee and a bit of breakfast on the porch while the morning sun massaged my lower back....
my very own spa treatment!!
Time to get out and enjoy some of the neighbors....
The first view I ever saw of our home was a photo in a realtor's magazine taken from the back... goodness that was 25 years ago this month.. it makes sense because that is the main entrance to our home... but 25 years ago our yard was all shady... huge maples spread their lovely branches to shade the house.... now we wait patiently for the replacement trees to grow...

I always wondered how Amanda felt everyday at school, especially in the afternoon program when I might be late picking her up....
I bet she thought, "if only I could just go on home"... but alas, we were not latchkey parents...
and you know be it ever so humble there is no place like home still resonates with me now... well, especially now that the playground stands quiet and peace pervades the neighborhood! hahahahahah

You have such a pretty home. I bet your daughter used to long for home time, it must have been torture to see it so near and yet so far. xx
ReplyDeleteI really like your home
ReplyDeleteIt is so nice that you were able to get out to walk and to enjoy the beautiful sunny day. There has been a lot of rain in so many areas lately -we're expecting more today - Your home does look inviting and I love how you were not latchkey parents and you're right - there definitely is no place like home. I appreciate you sharing with A Return to Loveliness,
