So I really hate that so many people are scared of going hungry right now. Ongoing food insecurity is so real in our country and it’s something we absolutely must address in the long term. That being said, my heart is warmed by all the people trying to support their neighbors, food banks, and mobile pantries right now.

In the interim, I think it’s important that people understand donating money is the best way they can help feed the most people. Food banks have relationships with manufacturers and food distributors where they might get products at cost or cheaper than what we can get at the grocery store.

If you have excess food, definitely donate it! If you want to get the most bang for your time and money, volunteer or donate funds. Also, if you are looking to support your community and you’re not sure where to start, Feeding America has a list of food banks in your ZIP Code. I am already volunteering at a local food bank in my new area, but I was amazed to see how many resources I could support by typing in my ZIP Code.

Blessed be the helpers. Thankful for those who give their time and resources to those who have fallen in tough times.

Love hard.

💔 The mornings that break you

Behind every absence code is a parent whispering - please, not again.

The clock ticks louder.
Shoes stay by the door.
You rehearse every calm word you can think of, trying not to cry before breakfast.

And when the tears come - from both of you - you remind yourself this isn’t defiance.

It’s distress.
It’s fear.
It’s Emotionally-Based School Avoidance (EBSA).

But you still carry the weight - the emails, the attendance threats, the guilt of being seen as “that parent.”

You’re not failing.
You’re surviving mornings that most people couldn’t imagine.

🩵 You don’t have to do it alone.

I hope you can find an amazing, supportive community on this page, of parents, carers and professionals who care and want to make things better too.

Is this something you're going through right now?
