Clear The List with Amazon

August 10, 2020 2 Comments

This post is sponsored by Amazon. As always my opinion, ideas and love for teachers and education are entirely my own.

Growing up if there was one person my father always had respect for it was my teachers. I guess that’s where my respect and love of teachers started. Then becoming a parent, I personally saw the value of teachers myself though my own experiences.

My favorite memory with teachers as a parent is when Panda was in kindergarten. Mrs. Heffernan saw so much potential in my son but also saw through his charm and clowning ways. Like I do with all of my childrens teachers, I let Mrs. Heffernan know that I would always be there to support her and would always be a phone call away. Very early in the school year my son tested to see if I was really “one phone call away”.

Did you know that 94% of teachers spend their own money on classroom school supplies? Teachers often aren’t being paid what they deserve, yet they are spending their own money to buy books and supplies for their classroom and students. The average amount spent by teachers each year $500. That is $500 dollars spent on OUR children.

That is why I am excited to be partnering up with Amazon to celebrate teachers this year and share different ways that you can give back. #ClearTheList is a social media movement that encourages people to give back to teachers by purchasing items from their Amazon Wish Lists and give back to teachers by purchasing items from their Amazon Wish Lists.

Amazon offers plenty of ways to give back — like shopping AmazonSmile Charity Lists. With AmazonSmile Charity Lists, you can browse charities and donate items directly to the charity of your choice. The list is managed by the charity themselves, so you are donating exactly what they need. There are thousands of charities you can search and what’s cool is that you can stick with the education theme for the month of August by searching for education- specific charities by visiting smile.amazon.com/charitylists. By simply saying, “Alexa, I want to make a donation”

Supporting teachers and education will always be near and dear to my heart. They somehow have become our answer to all of our problems in society and yet they arent funded that way. All parents have dreams and wishes for our children to be successful thriving adults with great careers. If your child has ever been taught by a teacher, then a teacher has had a hand in your dreams for your child. Let’s support our teachers as they continue to make our dreams come true. Head to my Instagram post and share a Amazon Wish Lists from your favorite teachers!

The decision to have children or not should be up to the person who is going to have that child! Period. ⁣
⁣
The comments I’ve been getting recently have been disgusting. Reading them I realized it there is no “perfect” family scenario that would please everyone and I really don’t want to please everyone!⁣
⁣
Drue and I have worked really hard to build and provide for our family. Each child that has joined our family either through adoption or pregnancy has been wanted and cared for. So unless you are willing to contribute your time and money, I don’t want to hear it.
Maybe there is a reason why you had a miscarriage Maybe there is a reason why you had a miscarriage and you should just adopt again. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That comment someone said after my miscarriage was probably the most hurtful comment. It also made me so angry because I feel like people have this idea that couples only adopt because they cannot have children of their own. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Oh you just had your fifth miscarriage? Adopt.⁣⁣
Oh your going through IVF? Why spend all that money you should adopt.⁣⁣
Unexplained infertility? Adopt. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You guys the solution to these problems aren’t adoption.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I didn’t adopt to try to replace the child I loss. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I adopted because I wanted to give a child the love, guidance, security to a child who didn’t have it because every child deserves that. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Those are the reason why anyone should adopt. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So the next time someone is going through infertility, the loss of a child or going through IVF please stop yourself from telling them they should ”just adopt” ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It will never come off the way you hoped for.
SURPRISE SHAWTY! ⁣⁣

I had a miscarriage during the pandemic. ⁣ ⁣ I I had a miscarriage during the pandemic. ⁣
⁣
I know I wasn’t the first or the only one. ⁣
⁣
I felt like I had done everything right. I tracked my cycle for months. Took my prenatals. Did my research and found a Black obgyn in my area. Got my positive test. Had my HCG levels checked every 48 hrs. ⁣
⁣
Everything was going great until it wasn’t. ⁣
⁣
I woke up one morning and all my pregnancy symptoms were gone and I just knew. I had my HCG levels checked one last time but i knew I would getting a phone call with bad news. ⁣
⁣
The thing about having a miscarriage during a pandemic is that it’s made a moment that already feels so lonely even more lonelier. I felt like I couldn't complain. People are losing their lives, jobs, businesses during the pandemic...and so I kept it to myself. Drue and I have leaned on each other a lot these few months. Therapy is helping me pick up the pieces. It's been hard for us but we've been through this rodeo before and we know the work we need to do. ⁣
⁣
For anyone who going through a miscarriage during these especially hard times, I'm sorry this just SUCKS. Get the help you need, lean on those who will help and listen to you and take your time.
I look at my daughters and I can’t help but see I look at my daughters and I can’t help but see all the similarities we have. I have two biracial daughters and one white daughter and I know outwardly people can only see how we look so different but I see the...⁣
⁣
sassiness, strength, kindness, nurturing, resilience, creativity in my girls. ⁣
⁣
Moms what is one non physical attribute that you see in your daughter? ⁣
