After 42 years of marriage, losing my husband three years ago left a hole in my daily routine that I’m still learning to fill. But I’ve had a good life with my family, and I’m not one to…
For years after my parents divorced, my father kept skipping me over for his new wife’s children. When I finally had enough, I taught him an important lesson about consequences.
