thought it was just a funny momentA few days ago, I was at the grocery store, frustrated after a long, exhausting day. As I turned into one of the aisles, I noticed a woman slumped over a shopping cart—completely passed out. Her two young kids were asleep inside the cart, curled up like little bundles. The scene looked chaotic, and honestly, I didn’t stop to think.
Instead, I took a photo.I uploaded it to social media with the caption:“Some moms just give up .”I figured people would find it funny. Some laughed. Others didn’t. A few comments even called me out for being insensitive. I brushed it off, thinking, “People are always too sensitive these days.”But life has a way of humbling you.Two nights later, I was at home making dinner. While trying to cut open a spaghetti squash, the knife slipped—and I sliced my hand open. It wasn’t life-threatening, but it bled heavily. I panicked. I wrapped it in a towel and rushed to the ER, overwhelmed and scared.
