Giving Tuesday

When I was reminded that today is Giving Tuesday, my first thought was "Oh no." In this season of the year, in this season of life, I am giving so much of myself already. I don't have any more left. And I am not OK with that. So today, I will first give to myself. Second, donate to asylum seekers. (Quote and hand lettering by Emily PG Erickson)

Sometimes you have to put on your own oxygen mask first before you can help others, especially when you’re giving so much of yourself already as a parent.
