“Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul.” –Luther Burbank Several weeks ago, I had the privilege of visiting the cutest little place in Chapin, SC, just north of Lexington, SC.  You know when you happen upon a place that gives you that instant sense […]

“These were my grandfather’s, so I’m not sure quite how old they are, but I know they date back to at least his infancy.” All the heart eyes and all the feels were had when Sarah started telling the story of her grandfather’s baby shoes and how they were important to her and her family.  […]

And even though it can be a bit intimidating to realize the responsibility of taking care of […]
