The perfect gift
Today is our 40th anniversary. I sure hope my husband likes what I got him.
Destined to be together
My grandparents were a match made in heaven, just not on earth.
Merry happy
Despite our different beliefs, my husband and our two daughters from previous marriages have discovered a way to navigate Christmas and Hanukkah.

A new policy limiting sex in Tufts dorms has my fellow students and me blushing in embarrassment.
The hard work of date night
With two young kids, my wife and I are usually too taxed and tired for alone time. But I think I have the solution.
