What an amazing story. It reminds me of something I heard in a PMAD support group: when flamingos have babies, they turn white for a little while and it takes time to get their pink back. I loved reading about Alison getting her pink back!!

I hear you on this! I try to take solace in the things I am doing (living in a city, composting, buying used items where I can) and give myself grace on the other stuff (my toddler loves pouches, outgrows clothing in 15 mins, we use disposable diapers for baby, etc.) This season of life is hard enough, try to focus on the big picture and know that in a few years (I hope?) it will be easier to live the way you want to.

You can also start teaching your kids at an early age how important it is to care for the earth! What could be better than raising the next generation of eco warriors?
