Over time, my husband taught himself how to repair every part of our 1919 Foursquare Oregon home. The kitchen was last in our prolonged renovation. When my husband, a recreational property developer, saw his business evaporate in 2008, he finally had time to finish the kitchen. Daily, I’d return from work and see his progress in walls, cabinets, wiring. One day, I returned to discover that he had lowered our kitchen window and cabinets to better suit my 4-foot-10 body. Finally, a full view of the park next door — and proof that love can sometimes be measured with a ruler. — Joan Kapowich

Beautiful story, beautiful kitchen! (Though the pragmatic part of me wonders if it will be hard to sell the house to a taller person one day.)

Good question. I don’t think it would be hard to resale. I am sure the relator could spin it as “floor” to celling windows, and most homeowners enjoy a beautiful view.

I too found it to be a lovely story worth resharing.
