Alright friends 🥲

I know I’ve been quiet since I found out we are moving but I just had to hop on one last time saying I am SO grateful for all of you who made this page what it is.

It has healed a part of me I didn’t realize needed healing. I’ve made amazing friends through this page that I’ll be forever grateful for.

Tomorrow I’ll turn over the page to my amazing
volunteer Rebecca who will run the page and organization as she see’s fit ❤️ she has a heart of gold and I know she will continue this amazing mission.

Thank you all again for the support this past year 😭😭😭🙏🏼

Wanted a share a resource I used with my last baby that isn’t super well known-the Mommy Care Kit!

You apply for the kit on the link above and they contact your insurance to see what will be covered. There are tons of insurance types that cover either the whole or partial Mommy Care Kit.

The photo below is what all they offer. My insurance thankfully gave me the whole kit!

If you have questions about the process let me know. The tens unit and plasma flow was a life saver for me!

I wasn’t expecting a response as quickly as I got one but come July this page and its mission *will* continue!! 🎉
The new head admin will be Rebecca who has been an amazing volunteer with us for awhile. I know for a fact the page will be in amazing hands when it comes time for me to leave.

I will be here managing content and deliveries until July and then Rebecca will take over and run the page to the best of her ability. We ask for your continued support when we make this transition 🩷

I’ve been avoiding this announcement since we found out, but now that our formal letter was signed;
We just found out we are getting transferred to live in South Carolina 🩷
We leave in August. This move is very quick and very unexpected.

This page has meant so much to me. I have found some lifetime friends through this page and have healed a part of myself I didn’t know needed healing.
I have been blessed to connect with so many moms here and I will always be grateful for that.

I absolutely plan to take Meal Menders with me and start it in South Carolina. If there is someone who has an interest in taking over the central Texas branch of Meal Menders, please let me know!
Otherwise, the page will close in July 😭🥲
I’ll continue to run meal menders through June and then will end in July to focus on the move that is coming on August 1.

I want to say thank you to everyone who has prayed for this page, who has donated meals, ingredients, and funds, and who just helped this page become what it became. I will always hold my time with this page here in Texas close to my heart 🫶🏼

I know I have been so quiet on here the past couple of weeks!!
We are managing a few life changes and there has been a lot on our plate with making decisions and what not-
All that to say we are still here and taking meal requests! I appreciated everyone’s patience with delayed deliveries the last couple of weeks.
My form shows I’m caught up now, so if you believe you applied for a meal and did not get a response please message me on here! 🫶🏼

We have $315/$400 raised for our little lenders project launching hopefully this summer sometime!
I took some time off this project to manage some other things, but we would love your help meeting the last little bit of our campaign!!
If you can not donate it would mean so much to us if you simply read our mission and then shared our campaign so that we can find those to help us make this a reality ❤️
