Beating the Back to School Blues
I know it’s just not just school-aged children saying it. Most likely, it’s many teachers too. Maybe even a few parents. “I don’t want to go back to school!”
Summer on the Farm
In the transient, ever-changing, unstable life of a military family, it is refreshing to return to some kind of summer place that is constant. A home, though not our own, that feels natural, secure, and comforting. For my family, that place to which everyone...
