Have you ever thought about your home being "well-mannered"? As in comfort, beauty, and appropriateness, which of course are what manners are all about. A gracious and welcoming entry. Spaces that flow naturally, whether filled with children or party guests. A room with good light for reading, a sofa to curl up on, and a handy spot for a drink. Manners put us and others at ease. Homes should too.
I was reminded that good manners always start at home, and we don't have to be young to learn.
