The Lifegiving Table by Sally Clarkson {review}
I love Sally Clarkson’s writings. She always encourages me to love my family more intentionally, more patiently, more joyfully– and her newest book, The Lifegiving Table was no different.

We learned some things along the way that I thought I’d share with you today.
