Ok so the countdown to Halloween is on! Ten days left! I’ve never been one to dress up as something scary or spooky on Halloween. I’ve always gone for the cute and pretty. And now, Halloween is double the fun with a little toddler to dress up as well!
As some of you may know, last May, I announced that Tutu Mama has joined hands with The Land Conservancy (TLC) by donating 5% of every purchase of the Jungle Look tutu to their non-profit, charity organization.
Today, I’m here to talk about TLC’s latest “Be the Change” campaign, titled after Mahatma Gandhi’s famous quote:
“Be the change you wish to see in the world”.
Today’s Mama’s Music Mantra reminds us how important it is to prevent burnout. The song pick: Take It All by Adele. Now turn up those speakers, click play, and read on!
Mama’s Evolution
“For moms who don’t feel tied down by their kids but freed by them. At Mama’s Evolution we do everything. With love!”
“Its Not the Mountain We Conquer, But Ourselves” -Unknown
I have no desire to climb Mt. Everest. I did however, climb Grouse Mountain. Some stats about the hike, affectionately named the Grouse Grind:
2830 stairs (more like fireplace logs jammed into the dirt…not the nice sturdy cement ones you find in your office building)
2800 ft. elevation gain
Average time: 1.5 hours
My goal : 1 hour (a random number based on my competitive impulse)
A photo of my husband and I post-Grind…hence me having to lean on him for support.
It was grueling. But so worth it! More than elevation, I gained insight into the internal battles we are up against when we challenge ourselves.

Mama’s Evolution
“For moms who don’t feel tied down by their kids but freed by them. At Mama’s Evolution we do everything. With love!”
“I Pity The Fool”
If you think you can be a loving mommy and live a complete life with your dreams fulfilled, with no help at all…think again. It’s not gonna happen. Mothers are superheros but there’s no need to spread ourselves thin. The good news is, everybody seems to want to lend a hand and help a mother out. Build your own A-Team to help you along this journey as a mother determined to do everything. With love.
