Comment Policy
Be kind. It is too easy to tear each other down in order to feel better about ourselves. This is not the place for that. We are in this mom-life together, we are here to celebrate each other’s wins, and to encourage each other in our defeats. We can disagree with each other, but let those ideas be expressed with respect, and a whole lot of grace.
These policies are subject to change at any time without notice.
