One of my favourite photos from my relationship is one of just Dana (my husband) at our wedding, thirteen years ago, standing at the front of the church. I’m not in the photo, but looking at his face, there is no doubt he’s looking at me. I’d know that look anywhere:...

The holidays are a great time to show loved ones how much they mean to us, and if you can speak the Love Language of the people on your list, they’ll feel as loved as you intend them to feel. Keep in mind that even children have Love Languages! In case you’re...

Even though Amelia’s tenth birthday is a few weeks away, we celebrated it this weekend. After all, we have had less than ten Covid cases a day in Nova Scotia so I figured it was a good chance. We can have up to ten people in our home – so as a family of...

See that photo below? That’s me, Sarah Lawson (now Sarah Birch), listed as “friendliest” in the yearbook superlatives. Friendliness is easy for an extrovert like me. My best friend likes to recount the tale about the time I had such a great conversation with the...

Lawyer turned Explorer. That’s how I’m known these days. Once upon a time, I studied law, then I had a less traditional but still legal-related career (particularly related to contracts). Two years ago, I became active in social media and about a year ago, I started...
