On Saturday, my dad picked me up to head to Nashville to see some of my relatives. He and my mom were planning on spending some time with them (my mom was there too but she came from Memphis, where my sister has just moved) and since I’m still having my break before work […]

David and I are beginning to apply for jobs in Boston and we could certainly use some prayers for that process. In addition to simply getting a job, we would both really like to get jobs that we will want to stay at for the next 3-5 years at least since our resumes are […]
