As one of four kids, I always enjoy observing other sibling relationships and these gals are the real thing! I also love the balance of humor and information in this podcast. I find myself thinking about what I’ve heard in the episodes long after they are over. I really appreciate the fact that these episodes can be squeezed in when a have a half hour to myself. All the stars for Laura and Virginia!
