We took our first beach vacation as a family of four this summer. We didn’t make it to the Caribbean or Florida but we hit the Georgia and South Carolina barrier islands: St. Simons, Jekyll, Tybee and Hilton Head. So Cara got her first beach vacation at seven...

Tuesday, Ruth brought Chloe Jane up to Gwinnett County so that I could be present for her first haircut. Beforehand, we had carefully chosen the place–a salon called “Snip-It’s” that caters to toddlers. It seemed like the best chance for...
