Farmhouse

Memories matter!

A large family comprising a mom, dad, and their twelve children lived in the house where they were born and raised. They filled this home with joy and celebration as the children had their fair share of fun. However, their parents also instilled discipline in them from time to time. The children spent their days playing, occasionally quarreling, and assisting with household tasks. They happily fed and milked the cows, picked apples, and cherished the moments they shared. As we all know, times inevitably change.
