Johnson's Baby Partnering with Save the Children to Support Mamas & Babies #MomCentral

For Mother's Day this year, our family went down to my mother-in-law's house for a cookout! We didn't do anything fancy, but the day in itself was just special, spending it with family and not a care in the world. The kids played together outdoors while we cooked and then we just enjoyed each other's company! The boys helped me back little gift baskets for their Grandma and Aunt, so we handed those out. I think the boys were just as excited to give them presents as they were to receive them. Our family has supported us through thick and thin and, without them, there were times I know we could not have gotten by. This is why I try to give back in small ways and to let them know how much we truly appreciate them.

As a Mama, it is not only important to give back to others, but to teach our children to do the same. We are here to set an example and, as their providers and educators, we must show them that giving is in most cases, more important and gratifying than receiving. This is why we have volunteered at places around our county as well as donate to Goodwill. We will continue to do so as they get older and, hopefully, they will one day impart this wisdom to their own children.

Big brother helping little brother!

 Johnson's Baby Cares
One of our favorite brands Johnson's Baby has a new charitable platform called Johnson's Baby Cares that I think is an amazing cause worth sharing and supporting. They are partnering with Save the Children, an organization focused on improving the health of Mamas and babies worldwide. Johnson's Baby Cares is donating Baby "Care Kits" stocked with all kinds of necessary baby items, including lotions, washes, shampoos, diaper creams and more to Save the Children.

Plus, Johnson's offered to donate an additional $50,000 to Save the Children when THIS video hit 500,000 views on their Happy Mother's Day, Mom-- You're Doing OK" video! Guess what? It is currently at over 4 million views! So, thanks for everyone who has done their part to make this amazing gift possible.
