I love reading and have an interest in many types of books--from fiction to nonfiction. These are my personal reviews based on the following criteria:
★★★★★ - A book I loved with strong writing and powerful content. One I'd keep on my bookshelf!
★★★★ - A book that is well-written and interesting or inspiring. Would likely reread.
★★★ - A book that I enjoyed but wouldn't necessarily read again.
★★ - A book I didn't enjoy but had some merit.
★ - A book I truly hated or couldn't finish.

What Happens After the Kids Go Down

(If you missed Part 1, you can read it here: How We Plan a Family Vacation That Actually Brings Us Closer—>)

It was originally Matt’s idea.

Between you and me, I wasn’t convinced it was a particularly good one. So he explained it again, as though I hadn’t understood him the first time.

“Babe, it’s like this. We’re going to ask each person in the family to pick a song that’s meaningful to them. No

I love all of Helen Roseveare's books, and this one is no exception.

Her writing is not polished in the literary sense — she would probably be the first to admit it. But that is almost beside the point, because what fills every page is something far m

“happy marriage is the union of two good forgivers.” ~ Ruth Bell Graham.”
Lisa Jacobson, 100 Ways to Love Your Husband: A Life-Long Journey of Learning to Love

“There’s only one place to put all your hope - your God and your Creator. (Ps. 71:5)”
Lisa Jacobson, 100 Ways to Love Your Husband: A Life-Long Journey of Learning to Love

“#11 Look for little ways to delight him. Be mindful of those small preferences of his. My husband likes his coffee cup warmed up before pouring. He has a certain way he likes his t-shirts folded (yes, I’m serious). He likes it when we go to bed at the same time. They might be tiny details, but they say something big to him. What about your guy?”
Lisa Jacobson, 100 Ways to Love Your Husband: A Life-Long Journey of Learning to Love

“My figurative position of confidence before Him, as a daughter in whom He delighted, was one long exhalation of relief. I didn’t earn this position; I inherited it, and that made my safety all the more secure, no matter His response. The ability He gave me to ask started, first, with Him. From this angle, how could I not ask?”
Sara Hagerty, Every Bitter Thing Is Sweet: Tasting the Goodness of God in All Things

“Billions of people have had sex. I don't know how many have actually made love.”
Sheila Wray Gregoire, The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex: And You Thought Bad Girls Have All the Fun

“We must all be allowed our moments of insanity and senselessness. Without them, what sort of dull, lifeless creatures would we be?”
Hannah Linder
