The couple is actively involved in the community that they cover each week. “Organizations are the lifeblood of a community like this,” Janice said. Children, Erin, 5, and Elliot, 11 months, are often included in the couple’s work and civic activities. “it’s hard when you start something for yourself because you always get interrupted,” Micael said.
