Blissfully Domestic is giving away some wonderful things this week (look at the dress! And it’s a small! Yeah!). What a fun way to start off the new year! Stop by and put your name in for the drawing… and if you win, can you let me know?
There is a wonderful slideshow of the March for Life in Washington DC. I wish I could have been there.
