@AllisonState I shared “The Mom Stays in the Picture” with a new mom at work today. That article stuck with me for a decade. I’m so glad you’re still writing; your words changed my life.

@RebekahFawcett This is why my primary social media these days is my dog’s Insta. She only follows other pets: mostly dogs, cats, a bunny.
