Loving When It’s Hard by Jana Fraley
I got off the phone and felt as if there was a fist around my heart, squeezing its lifeblood. The hurt and discouragement were so palpable, making every breath painful.

Humble Hearts Choose Justice and Kindness by Jessica Haberman
My kids are at an age where they are getting into squabbles with each other. Sometimes it is a big blatant transgression with a clear right and wrong. More often than not though, it’s a cycle of grievances perpetuated back and forth.

Night after night, I watched her work with such intentionality and joy on her face. On each package was a drawing that depicted her classmate’s likes, hobbies, and/or favorite candy. I was astonished. At the end of her 2 week crafting session, she had 18 little thoughtful gifts—a box full of love.
