Reading, Book Clubs, board games

I enjoy reading self help books. From the the books that changed my life I share it with other people.  Each year a small group of women "Ladies in Waiting"  get together and  discuss a book of choice chapter by chapter.  We reflect on different topics of the book that challenges us to grow.  I also enjoy play board games with my children as a way to bond.
