Even though I moved into her ward (church congregation) when Rich and I were very first married, and she was a professor at BYU with 4 boys- she… Read More
How to Divide up Chores with Your Spouse without Fighting By: Angela Imagine someone who you just KNOW is super busy. As in, they have a million and one things to take care of.
