Do you ever wonder what others are doing at this very moment? As you unload the dishwasher, do you catch yourself asking what your brother or best friend is doing? I do. In the business of this life we live, we tend to be good about sharing our major events or celebrations. Yet, I know […]
And just like that, we are on 2020’s doorstep. I love the sound of 2020, so neat and even. Even numbers make me happy, and I feel like even years set you up for good memories. For example, what was great about 2012? Easy, Harper was born. How about 2014? Jameson arrived. I don’t remember […]
