Our stories today are about family coming together, one member at a time, as they’re found and recognized. We’ll start by following some tiny paw prints in the snow, digging through the cupboard to find food dishes and stoking the fire for any wandering visitors in need of some warmth in Lost and Found. Then we’ll watch the spring arrive, forsythia blooms and branches full of birds as we get to know each other in Toast and Marmalade. And finally, we’ll flip through the pages of the Village newspaper, till we’re stopped by a face that is new but instantly familiar in Marmalade and Crumb.
