Description: "Life can be a bit upside-down in the Smucker family's Oregon farmhouse. In this book Dorcas Smucker, mother of six, writes thoughtful essays about muffins on the floor, orange dot on the kitchen ceiling, and the footprint that began their story. Daffodils, blackberries, independent kids, and a yowling kitty--they're all there too. Should they cut down the pine trees? Why does a yellow teapot mean redemption? How can a dedicated mom let go? Find out for yourself, and recall all the unexpected endings of your own."--Back cover.
