If you’re just dipping your toes in the water and have it happen, it can give you cold feet from ever buying another one. Don’t give yourself to hard of a time, it’s ok!

Mom Truths from a Mom of Five: SELF CARE is a must
As a mom of five, I don’t get *tons* of alone time and there is most certainly always something to do.

This post is in partner with Alex’s Elderberries. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. My family and I have lived a non toxic lifestyle for almost decade now and I’ve researched and learned a lot through out that time.

Also my husband is a Doctor of Chiropractic so between him and myself, we are very confident in our decisions when it comes to treating our family holistically. During cold and flu season, I am very passionate…
