My baby had a baby! As some of you may know, I have two daughters. One is quite visible on the blog and podcast--Rebecca, my oldest. She's co-authored both The Great Sex Rescue and She Deserves Better with me, and we talk frequently about her two little ones. Katie's...
Want something new to listen to? I'm taking things easy for a month, seeing some extended family and then taking a little holiday. So instead of recording new podcasts on Thursdays, I thought I'd share three picks that you may have missed! Two are OTHER podcasts I've...
Summer is upon us, and I have three big things to tell you about today! (And I realize that for all my Australian, South African, and New Zealand friends it's winter? So glad you're here too! Did you know that even though I'm Canadian, Australia is just as represented...
Are you stuck on Christmas gift ideas for your husband? For a woman, you can always just buy something pretty. But what does a guy want? One of my most popular posts ever was my Christmas stocking stuffers for your husband--and in that post I give some really unique...
For those of you who don't get the weekly newsletter, Sheila's 50th birthday is today!In the Friday newsletter last week I (Rebecca) sent out a request for birthday wishes and wow--we got a lot! Sheila started this blog in 2008. That's twelve years of doing this....
Do you remember that scene at the end of My Big Fat Greek Wedding, when Toula's parents buy them a house? And then you find out that the house is right next door the parents' house? Well, let me tell you a story. Last month, on...
We are living in weird times. I can't say unprecedented; plagues were relatively common throughout history. A while back I read a biography of Abigail Adams, and remember vividly the story of how she had her kids "vaccinated"...
So...anyone else self-isolating right now, cosying up with your spouse? Something tells me there's going to be a huge baby boom in about 9 months! Want to hear something ironic? I originally had a post scheduled for today titled "Why We Should Celebrate Other People's...
When was the last time you ran so fast you could hardly feel your feet hit the ground? What about dancing crazily in the kitchen to your favourite song, or feeling the rush of going down a hill really fast on your bike? Moving is FUN when we actually let ourselves...
31 Days to Great Sex is almost gone. Well, it will resurrect in the summer. But it's gone until then. Let me explain. I've been selling 31 Days to Great Sex on my own since 2012. I created it originally in ebook form, and then I paid for it to be published in...
The presents need wrapping (and one needs buying). A few gifts still need to be finished off. The bedrooms that will soon be filled by my kids who are returning home need some tidying. And I'm very excited! I'll be signing off for a week now to take a Christmas break...
Are you at a loss trying to find Christmas presents for someone who has everything? I try to be quite deliberate with gifts, getting things that people truly need and that won't just take up space in closets or drawers or on counters. And I try to get things that...
I've been writing some pretty heavy pieces lately, and I wanted to give you all a bit of an update and a newsier side of the blog. Those who are signed up for my emails get more of this regularly (and especially those signed up for my prayer letters!), but I thought...
I have always said that Katie was my worst labour. With Rebecca, I was in labour for 10 hours. We got to the hospital too early, and they made me walk around the cafeteria for a few hours. I remember I spent most of that time in the bathroom at Women's College...
Baby Lindenbach arrived in the wee small hours of this morning. Mommy and baby are both doing well, but everyone is very tired after a very long day of work. Sheila asked me to specifically tell you all what an absolutely amazing support Connor was throughout...
