Such a beautiful story you've shared, Kim, captured through the lens of your porch photos. My family has been taking pics in front of the blossoms in the spring for the past couple of years now and I love the visual testament of how we've changed and grown each year. Thankful for these monthly emails, Coffee + Crumbs! Always a delight in my inbox!

I love this essay! What a beautiful centerpiece that porch is! I don’t have any single location like this front porch for my family since we have moved so much, so I loved reading about this. Great job, Kim!
