Since the holidays are coming up, we asked moms in the Smart Parenting Village Facebook group what they would like to gift themselves this year for a job well done. As expected, many moms are happy with having eight hours of sleep, a whole day of rest, a full-body spa or massage, and traveling alone.
While we understand budgets may be tight this year, we still have to emphasize that it’s okay to spend for even a small something for yourself. Below are the gifts moms would like to reward themselves.
