Ten years ago – prior to kids – Chris and I regularly frequented the movie theater as our way to “let go”.
We wanted children so badly, we used to see other parents, point and say things like, “When we have kids, we’re going to do WAY better than that one… and that one… and FOR SURE that one!”
(Yes, I know it was wrong, but that’s emotionally where we were at the time.)

To continue… my biggest frustration was with parents who would bring underaged children to (R) rated movies. For the record… I still think there’s no excuse for that. It’s poor parenting. The difference is that NOW, I keep that conclusion to myself and say a quick prayer for the parents. But back then, I printed these cards off and handed them out to the poor-parental-perpetrators. (I thought I was really doing something for the cause!) I wish I could go back and hug my younger self and tell her to just focus on being who God called HER to be. Carole, Carole, Carole….. smh….

Now seriously… What would you have done had a strange woman with no kids handed you this card at a movie theater?
