It's a celebration of love between generations."-Jim Burns, PhDPresident, HomeWordAuthor of Doing Life with Your Adult Kids and Finding Joy in the Empty NestAbout the AuthorCarissa Shillito has always liked to write, draw, and play the fiddle. She grew up in a big city near Dallas and now lives in a small Kansas town. She loves riding in a dust-covered van along country roads with her husband and four boys and coming home to a Christian retreat center called Shalom, which means peace.
