In Your Own Words (Our Mother’s Day Challenge Special): Episode 101



When we invited listeners to send in handwritten cards and letters with encouraging words for fellow moms, we had no idea the response we’d get. Turns out, you have a lot to say–and we were truly blown away by your response.

Join Meagan, Sarah, and fifteen very special guest readers for a special presentation of our Mother’s Day Challenge project where we read aloud some of our favorite letters. Happy Mother’s Day!

    As a hormonal mom-to-be of her third little one, I can’t read these anymore! I’m tearing up by every one and kicking myself I never sent one in too (boy did I compose loads in my head throughout most days). What wonderful words of wisdom, advice and just reassurance. THANKS to all the moms who sent something in and THANKS to Sarah and Meagan for the fab idea. Mother’s day isn’t just one Sunday a year, it’s EVERY day of the year (but maybe you’re just the one making breakfast the other 364 days…)
