Welcome to Our Community!

I caught myself talking badly about somebody and immediately felt sick about it.

The next day I had a jarring conversation with a friend who was justifying when it’s “okay to lie.” And although most of us have lied at one time or another, her statement “some lies are okay” felt icky.

Like everyone else, my fifth-gear life came to a full stop in March of 2020 when the novel coronavirus began to spread throughout the world. Our three children (ages 13, 12, and 8) came home from school on a Friday and haven’t gone back since. Practices, lessons, and games stopped. Meetings were postponed. Travel was cancelled. The constant narrative that has defined my life since high school, “I’m so busy!” was disrupted, and suddenly, I had all of the space in the world.

God, you’re hilarious.
