Ode to the Mommy Meltdown
So let’s take it all in stride. You are the best mama you can be, and I’m the best mama I can be. We run the world and nobody can take that away from us.

Hurricane (Harvey & Irma) Help
Please consider donating to one of these organizations to help those affected by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma.
Babies, mamas, and elderly affected by the recent hurricanes to hit the continent are in need of our support. Unfortunately, diapers and similar supplies are often not provided by rescue organizations. Diapers are a necessity – as a mom I can’t imagine being without them. These families have enough to worry about, it is our time to step up and help out all over the country.
Please consider donating to one of these organizations:
- Texas Diaper Bank (also see their Amazon wishlist for affordable shipping or to use your Amazon Prime free shipping)
- American Red Cross
- Habitat for Humanity
