A year ago The Today Show launched their Parenting Team and for me, it has been life changing. LIFE CHANGING, friends! Because of the Parenting Team, my posts have been featured on Today.com, shared on their Facebook pages, and of course my Today Show appearances. So when I gush about the Parenting Team, it’s for a good reason.

Last week during my fourth appearance on the Today Show, I talked to the digital team about what the Parenting Team is all about and why parents and bloggers should join and they made this awesome video.

I have to warn you, this video makes me a little weepy because I’m just so proud and excite. Plus I’m just a big crybaby that gets weepy over everything. I’m serious when I say if there is an emotion to be had, I’m probably crying. Big old crybaby. My favorite part of this video is the clip of my first segment where I’m talking to Carson about chocolate and then I get all Oprah and sing “chocolate.” My BFF keeps saying she is going to make that her ringtone. Ridiculous

So happy birthday to the Parenting Team. I will eat cake all week in your honor.
