Many families enter and exit their homes through the garage or a side door, reserving the front door for strangers and company. Today, take a moment and enter through the front. Look at your home as though you were visiting for the first time, then grab a broom, a rag, some window cleaner, and paper towels.
Take five or ten minutes to brush down spiderwebs and get rid of smudges. If you have flowers, are they healthy or bedraggled? Is it time to decorate for fall?
A few minutes can drastically change the first impression others have when viewing your home.
When it's practical, I agree.
With three young children it is much easier for me to pull in, close the door, and then unbuckle everyone before herding them toward the door. It keeps them from running toward the street or the nearby construction. Others may be in a same or similar season of their life. Once everyone can get into the house under their own power I'll consider it a viable option.
For others, the garage or parking may be behind the house.
