Two red birds
These last two years stateside, I’ve been praying for my husband every time I spied a red bird. The whole red bird thing started in France, where, surprise-surprise, they have red birds too.

That was such a blessing! ***** OK, change of subject… One of the things I miss here in France are American magazines. Friends […]
How to Survive Financial Crisis in Your Marriage
The neighbors behind us shared their disheartening news. “Our home is going into foreclosure,” they told my husband Patrick and me.
