Alright, I realize it won’t officially be a week until tomorrow. But this will be my last post until after the New Year holiday. With all that is happening now and all that will be going on in the next several weeks, I have decided to take a little break and give you one from…
I know that I often dote on my wife and daughter. It is not as though it isn’t well deserved. More and more people know the stress and work that comes with being a caregiver, but few understand the commitment and sacrifice involved in what it takes to do it 24/7. My wife and daughter…
