It is charming.<BR/>I have spent months feeling so inadequate where homes are involved. Mine is small and not glamorous but I love it. A house is not a home without photos, books, well worn chairs and pillows and the stuff of life.<BR/>No one could ever look at your hoke and feel any differently. I would feel instantly *at home* there. And oh so *at home* with you. You are lovely, funny, smart and warm.

I love all the touches in your home, but what I love most about this post is that it's REAL. It's wonderful to look at beautiful pictures of gorgeous homes ( and yours is!), but it's also nice to see that everyone is human just like me. Makes me feel not so inadequate as I usually do!

It feels like a model home that no one lives in and you wouldn't want to make that impression either. I think you have the perfect combination of lived in and clean to have the homey feel. I'm very jealous of your book cases. I don't have nearly enough in my house.
