• Can’t Run From What Is

  

  My two sisters live in Tucson, Arizona. We were all raised in the Chicago area–I escaped the snow and cold more quickly than they did. You never forget the snowstorms that, as a kid, were the invitation to snowball fights, snowmen, snow forts, and anything that had to do with wintery wonder. Of course, none…

• Applying Truth Can Be Sticky

  Food isn’t always viewed as the best thing to be eaten. Tastes vary. Many have allergies and are unable to eat certain foods. And some days something just doesn’t sound good enough to eat. Cal, at two, isn’t the most accommodating eater in our family. He’s picky, and if it’s something he doesn’t want or…
