B is for Birthday Girls
This week is always a fun week at our house. Two of my three favorite girls celebrate birthdays this week. The other one’s birthday is in October. You might think of this as a cop-out, but that’s OK. I’m still going to keep this post short because there’s a whole lot of celebrating to be had….

I’m no Casanova. But we can do better, fellas.
You might remember the series of guest posts that I published a year or so ago. They were written in response to this question: “What’s the most romantic thing someone has done for you?” You, Dear Reader, responded . Some pretty awesome posts were written.
