Holmes himself famously said that there’s nothing new under the sun—but we’re willing to give him a run for his money. howeveri ...

You see that even a villain and murderer can inspire such affection that his brother turns to suicide when he learns that his neck is forfeited."

Raising children is the best way to find out one’s weaknesses. Perhaps you thought you were a fairly good citizen. You always thought of others when taking turns at the post office and you never took more than your portion of ice cream at the birthday party. But having children seems to expose the lazy and selfish parts of ourselves. That’s why we …

In my years of motherhood, I’ve met many friends who are better housekeepers than I am. Some of them just come by it naturally. I come by it with effort and thoughtful deliberation. I’m easily distracted by the dimples on my children’s faces, the lure of a good book and the conversation with a friend. If you are naturally clean and tidy, you may no…

Holmes complains about the weather, insults a Scotland Yard detective and untangles some old family drama in this strange little story. Plus, Watson is married now! Did anything else meaningful happen? From The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, "The Boscombe Valley Mystery" is an oddly-paced, weirdly plotted short story about murderous Australians and…

One of the gifts of motherhood is to overhear a child humming or singing softly while playing or doing chores only to discover they are singing a hymn we learned in church or during our family devotions. Is there anything more precious than listening to children’s voices singing praises to God? To hear a child sing as loud as possible: “Holy, holy,…

Children need to eat at regular intervals. They seem to grow grumpy when not fed on time or in a regular rhythm. As a young mother, I knew this to be true, however, I found myself always surprised by how quickly the meals came. For each meal, I’d scramble together what we had. I was not a “planner” nor was I sure how to manage the home in a way tha…
