BACK PORCH...

when we first moved here
4 years ago
being completely overwhelmed
by the whole moving process
I sat on the kitchen floor
crying...
"why did we buy a house for the porches?"

some days I still ask the same question...

but most days
I am happy we followed our hearts.

  6. Buying a house for the porches seems perfectly logical to me - but then, I really love porches.

    I hope you don't mind. I linked your post to my PORCH AND GARDEN PARTY at firstadream.blogspot.com.

  7. I've so said that about every house we've owned...not about porches, but the inground pool, or the floor to ceiling closets, or somesuch. Eventually I remember my first love. :)
