今天需要一个理由微笑？看起来不比今天的个人资料Kierra亨德森。弗吉尼亚居住的母亲和她的四个男孩（！）不仅具有最感染性的葡萄酒，他们也有一个衷心的故事来匹配。当Kierra与世界其他地区一起听到乔治·弗洛伊德呼唤他的妈妈时，她决定以最好的方式回答他的心脏扳动辩护我妈妈，一个崭露头角的运动，激励所有种族的母亲，以肩负着肩膀，以战斗全身种族主义，并用正义和光线填补世界。

除了她令人振奋的故事——包括她自己童年的美好回忆和她祖母的强大影响——这位忙碌的母亲还展示了她最近翻修的孩子的房间，里面装满了环保食品陶器谷仓孩子。这包括一个新的中世纪现代风格的可转换婴儿床为她3岁的大卫，一个毛绒地毯给6个月大的诺亚玩animal-themed床上用品对于她的大男孩（PJ，7，和Joey，5）。

Kierra为她的男孩们的共享空间选择的所有作品都是用有益于孩子和环境的材料和实践来创作的。婴儿床是Greenguard黄金认证和完成儿童安全，水性完成。与此同时，婴儿床被单是由100%有机棉制成的，符合GOTS标准，男童被子是通过BCI (Better cotton Initiative)认证的，这意味着用于制作它们的棉纤维是遵循严格的环保原则种植的。看一看，同时了解更多关于科拉的鼓舞人心的旅程，在下面!

It pulls the entire room together and gives it a fresh and cozy feel. It’s the perfect thing to walk barefoot on, or to snuggle with a few pillows and blankets to read a story."

My second boy has had bouts with asthma and allergies, so I always have my eyes open for possible irritants. I try my best to find ways to keep the air clean in their room. We use a lot of plants to clean the air. And bringing in clean products into their room adds to my peace of mind."

When they are little it’s easy and they make tons of memories together in one room. When creating a shared space, find personal touches that are unique to each child so they can feel ownership in their room. It can be a shelf or table top for them to display their personal items, or a carefully placed special teddy bear. I think it’s important for anyone to have a strong sense of belonging in their home."

Book and Toy Ledge, $79, Pottery Barn Kids.">: “I had dreams of becoming a life-long career woman. I wanted to be single with no kids, work in government, live in the Washington D.C. metro area in a condo, and have two dogs. Major plot twist! I didn’t see this life coming, but I’m so glad I’m here. When I met my husband, Paul, one of the first things that I told him was that I was moving to D.C. He had to work fast because I was on the move. Shortly after, I fell in love with God, myself, and Paul. I had reached a turning point in my life. The more love overtook my heart, the more I realized that I had more love to give. I wanted that illustrious career for all of the wrong reasons. The truth was, I wanted to have a family that was different from how I grew up. I didn’t think it was possible, so I planned an alternative route. My grandma was a major influence in my life. She made a new life after her divorce and she prayed so many times that my path would be different. She told me over and over that I was a curse breaker. Me having this family is redemptive. I thought I was sacrificing my dreams, but my dreams started coming true in ways that I could have never planned or imagined. I still admire single women who are successful in their careers—and I still hold my own when I can—but now I can't imagine my life without all of my guys."

In the Heat Of the Night and Oprah, we jumped rope, ate watermelon on the picnic table, we did everything. My grandma would dress me in the cutest of dresses for church on Sundays. With my grandma, at her house was my favorite place to be. With everything that’s going on, I wish she was here so that I could go back and feel that feeling again. I hope my children feel the same about the home I’m creating for them." Brooklyn Rug, $399, Pottery Barn Kids.

I AM MAMA was from every mother who heard the cry of George Floyd but didn’t know what to do. The world needs the love that mothers are designed to bear. When we use our instinctive ability to love and nurture to fight evil and hatred, we’re a force to be reckoned with. One of my favorite quotes (by Matthew Arnold) is: 'If there ever comes a time when the women of the world come together purely and simply for the benefit of mankind, it will be a force such as the world has never known.' This is the inspiration behind I AM MAMA." Brooklyn Rug, $399, Pottery Barn Kids. I AM LOVED Onesie, $23, Bonfire. ">: “灵感我妈妈来自每一个听到乔治弗洛伊德哭泣的母亲，但不知道该怎么办。世界需要母亲设计忍受的爱。当我们利用我们本能的爱和培育邪恶和仇恨的能力时，我们是一个被忽视的力量。我最喜欢的报价之一（由Matthew Arnold）是：'如果世界上纯粹是纯粹的，而是为了人类的利益，那么是世界上从未知道的力量则是一个人。这是背后的灵感我妈妈．"

I AM MAMA. I have met so many beautiful women that I cherish deeply. We are truly united by our love. Also, seeing moms wear the I AM MAMA shirts was chilling.

I was okay with the lockdown until I was ready to take my therapy shopping trips. Currently, my extroverted child is back to school in-person. He politely told me that he wouldn’t miss me but he still loves me, and I understand his sentiments completely. I decided to homeschool my kindergartener because of learning challenges. As for my city, we are able to resume most of our activities but with restrictions and mask mandates. It’s a different way to live but we will overcome this too."
