No matter the time of year, it's always a good opportunity to take inventory of what we have and consider what we really use.

It's a great time to think about how we want to get more organized (or organized in general). It always feels like a new, clean slate.

Both my daughters are on the pill, just in case. My oldest daughter lost her virginity to her boyfriend at the time when she was 16. The relationship didn't last, I guess they weren't made for each other. Anyway, she confided in me when she lost her virginity. I told her it was okay, it was her decision to make. They didn't use condoms even though I provided them, but since they were exclusive with each other and she's on the pill it didn't matter. She didn't get pregnant.
