My Grown-Up Christmas Reading List

December 9, 2013 By Laura Leave a Comment

I’ve posted a lot of kids’ book lists this year (including this one, listing our favorite Christmas books).

Doing What Works

August 27, 2012 By Laura Leave a Comment

My husband and I went out to dinner a few years ago with some friends who weren’t from around here. “Where should we go?” they asked. “Um. We have no idea,” we replied. One of them looked concerned. “You guys really need to be having a date night. It’s important for your relationship — especially […]
