Nevah Wouldah Made It…

Today marks the one year anniversary of my first day at this job. It has been quite a ride! The move from Michigan was rough. Financially. Emotionally. Socially. Rough. But here we are, one year later, and God has seen us through! When we filed our taxes, our tax preparer asked how we managed to …

wait, who’s older?

Over the past few years I’ve met women who have challenged my long-held conviction that when it comes to marriage, the man must always be older than the woman. No, he couldn’t even be a day younger! This belief did not evolve in a vacuum. Rather, it was seeded by lectures during Sabbath afternoon youth …

rejecting the cows

There was a time when I was willing to relinquish my cultural heritage to adopt my husband’s so that our children would be raised solely as a part of his culture. There was a time when doing that made complete sense to me and I would have done it in a heartbeat – not for …
