The streets were dark and so were most of the houses. There were no street lamps to guide the way for the rag-tag group of carolers. There were no strings of twinkling lights to beacon us to the more welcoming houses. So onward we went, house to house, ringing one doorbell after another. I stood […]
My Brave Today
It was a such a pleasure to read Annie F. Down’s new book “Let’s All Be Brave,” and to be part of the Bloom book club. And so I’m going to take a small step of bravery and share my thoughts about the book with you via video. If you can’t see the video, click […]
