First House, As Imagined

• 

A small cottage nestled in a bed of wildflowers and prairie grasses. A tree-guarded place outside for a chair or bench or swing, to accommodate summer reading. A cozy kitchen, a guest bedroom, and a dedicated library with space for a simple desk. A clawfoot tub. Windows everywhere, inviting plenty of soft sunshine. A grand piano. Hardwood floors. Fresh flowers in every room. Love and laughter.
