An authentic civilization of truth and love
The following is sort of a love letter to the pro-life movement generally, and Birthright—the crisis pregnancy that was the nursery of my beliefs—and my parents specifically. My mom started a local Birthright chapter when I was ten. I’m so thankful for her example and the education that gave me. This describes much of that […]

Facing the horror
For years, from college through my early married life, I was deeply involved in the pro-life movement. I lead my college and state pro-life groups.

Useless ritual
Yesterday, Little Miss and I watched the reading of the Constitution on the floor of the United States House of Representatives. She read along and stayed with it despite all the “yielding to the gentleman/gentlewoman” stuff that dragged it on for an hour and a half. She is now probably better versed in our government’s […]

Deliberate
That’s my New Year’s Resolution: to be more deliberate, to live deliberately. This past year has been hard. No major tragedies or upheavals (although family members and friends have faced both), but just hard in a “pecked to death by baby ducks” and “if it’s not one thing it’s another” sort of way. There were […]
