We don't usually do Valentine's Day, but @jeffreystyf limped through the store after basketball to find a bouquet of flowers that didn't already look half dead to show his grumpy, stuffed-up, pms-y wife that she is loved. It ALMOST makes up for him leaving for three full days while I had the flu. #ithinkillkeephim #20valentinesdaystogether #wedontcelebrateitanyway

Thank you @pantsuitpolitics The only good thing about being sent home from work with a fever was that I got to finish this book, between naps, of course. I pray that the lessons that were learned and reinforced in my reading will make me a better wife, mother, and teacher. When I took our daughter to the doctor to get her flu diagnosis last week, the receptionist asked what I was reading, wrote down the name, and said "I need a book like this." Recently she had a patient come in who had been ranting about everything from health care costs to Colin Kaepernick. She was looking for a way to deal with even the most unreasonable talkative patients. But this book does so much more. It reminds us to look at our fellow Americans as humans with unique experiences and perspectives. We don't have to all agree on everything and we should recognize that most of us have the right motivations and desired outcomes, we just have different ideas on how to get there. #everyonegooutandbuythisrightnow #loveJesusloveothers #wecandobetterthanthis #nuance
