Curious? Is anyone in need of organizational help? Pantry/fridge/cabinets/drawers/closets...
We are thankful and grateful for what moms do. The question then becomes what can we do for our moms?

One mom's response to what is like being a full-time working mom:
"I've had to lower my expectations when it comes to stuff around the house. Laundry gets washed but rarely ever folded/put away. Dishes are clean but are usually in the dishwasher until I have to start the next load (which means my counters are overflowing). Dinners are halfway homemade (bagged salads and microwaved veggies, premade meatballs and pasta, rotisserie chicken and pasta, frozen fish or chicken with easy sides, etc.). It's stressful and I hate not feeling on top of things, but I value the time I save this way. I am fortunate to be able to have a cleaning service come in, so every other week it's a mad dash to put everything away so they can come in and scrub everything. And I usually pre-order my groceries for pick-up."
