"Home is not a place; it's a feeling." — Unknown

Yesterday, I met the woman who will make our house her home.

Over the past few weeks, I have been confronting my possessions, making space to reveal the things that hold meaning.

I rediscovered the place we called home for a season, through the heartfelt excitement of another. The nourishment of nature, family, and belonging are just a few things we experienced here that will now welcome her home.

It is in the moments when cleaning and rearranging becomes a rhythmic meditation that you discover the richness home making.

The spirit of a home can be felt by all who cross its threshold.

Be well,

Kathy

Bender discovers for herself, and in the process shows us, that small miracles can be found everywhere - in our homes, in our daily activities and, hardest to see, in ourselves.
