The scraps of paper. Notebooks purchased with the best of intentions. Writing on my hands and arm. Telling my sleepy spouse the time and praying that he remembered when I started nursing as I knew I was too sleep-deprived to remember.

Sightings of stinkbugs in the following places… crawling towards the fridge under the microwave on the inside and outside of the screen door…my tween screamed...

On a recent Oprah a husband and wife talked about having separate bedrooms. Both said they were happily married for over 10 years. Two kids. The couple had not disclosed their sleeping arrangements with friends or family until Oprah. The wife had the master bedroom. The husband was downstairs in a guest bedroom. The...

After 20 years of marriage and three children, date nights are sadly few and far between. We have babysitting issues as the grandparents are getting older. I don’t always feel comfortable leaving the younger two with the oldest. My husband is often too tired on the weekends to go out. I don’t want to...
