As writers and bloggers, we often forget what is most important is not what is on the computer screen in front of us but rather the family whose back our desk chair is oftentimes turned away from. If contributing to the Happy Wives Club ever pulls you away from time with your family…please stop…immediately…and resume to what is most important. Although we will be sad to see you go, we will most certainly understand, and someone will most certainly pick up where you left off.
“Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”
