Front Porch Swing
Let’s start with story time today… back when I was a little girl we lived in Lawton/Ft. Sill, Oklahoma. Most of you have little idea where the heck that is and for good reason. We lived on an artillery base. So if you weren’t into those sorts of things or part of the military it’s unlikely you would know about it’s location. I spent the formative latter years of elementary school there. Summers felt like gusts blowing from a constant furnace across your cheeks in the blistering dry heat and Winters were filled with all of the fun of building a snowman.
We lived on base in these huge homes built in the early 1900’s. I remember it was so popular for tenants to put up porch swings. As a ten year old, I lived to swing in the evenings with my best friend! We chatted for hours out there as our front porch faced the skyline of the purple mountains range lurking in the distance.
Now more than ever a front porch swing is exactly what I needed! It flooded back tons of sweet childhood memories and adds quality to the home. What adds to your life? What floods back good memories? It’s now time to do the things that bring you joy. Craft your life right now. Build routines and good habits. I believe in you!
