Hope and Joy
With hectic schedules, bustling holiday plans, and the myriad details that make up December, it’s easy to overlook the deeper meaning of Christmas.

Undertaking the Assignment
Saturday is a chore day for me. Suzanne typically has several items on her “honey do” list, and I have more than I care to think about on mine. We usually kick off the day by discussing our goals and what we want to accomplish. Although this may seem like a simple routine, when we […]

And frankly, our absence of joy can harm those nearest us. What can we do?
