Isn't this just dreamy? I can just imagine the aroma of woodsmoke drifting on the air as Honey steps onto the front porch after a long day at the church...replaced, upon entering, by beef stew simmering on the stove and the house lit with fragrant cinnamon spice candles.
After dinner, he'd hear the familiar scritch scratch of my whisk on the bottom of our saucepan as I prepare homemade cocoa to enjoy with big fluffy marshmallows. He'd settle into a comfortable chair by the fire and open his favorite read aloud -- Little House in the Big Woods. Ah-- a girl can dream!
Some of those things can come true right where we are in our humble little cottage. Just a little work here and there and I can make this a comfortable and welcoming place for my husband and children. It's Autumn and time for some cleaning and feathering my nest.
God bless you all!

Sounds lovely!
My husband hinted last week that we have too much stuff, a kind way of hinting for me to clean out clutter. You are right, just a little fixing up what we have, where we are makes a big difference.
That sounds perfect to me!
