I say the same thing three times...

.

Over the last month, we've done a lot of traveling, and as a result of that, we've had a lot of family time together.

"Can I have that?" x 3

"Put that down." x 3

"[Insert Child's Name here.]" x 3

No matter the issue, nothing is ever heard on the first go round. For most parents, this isn't anything new, and in fact is something they do automatically. I wonder how many parents have automatically done this, even when it wasn't necessary. I had a moment where this nearly happened, except I think my co-worker would have appreciated it.

That's my house!

.
Whenever anyone looks at a Marvelous Mommies card rack, there is always the inevitable comment - "Oh, that's my house!", "That happened to me!" or just some laughter that comes from knowing the precise moment that the incident in question happened in your own life.

Our goal at Marvelous Mommies is to bring you cards that reflect your life with children.

If your local retailer doesn't carry Marvelous Mommies cards, please let us know, and we will be glad to get them set up.

Trouble with Teens?


Parents raising teens will appreciate receiving a new, humorous card designed exclusively for them. Greeting card company Marvelous Mommies has released "Sympathy," a card that mimics traditional sympathy cards, except for the gruff-looking teen glaring out from the card's front.

The inside text reads, "As you adjust to this time of confusion, bizarre hair cuts, mood swings, and indecipherable motivations, our thoughts and prayers are with you. With sympathy on the raising of your teen."

The card is available in through select retailers or online at the Marvelous Mommies site.

According to the card's designer Brenda Brathwaite, "Sympathy" was inspired as much by her own experience as a teen as it was watching her friends and relatives raise their own.

"It's a challenging time for parents and for kids," said Brathwaite, "but it's a funny time, too. As parents, we laugh about stuff as we lean on one another for support. I wanted to create a card that captured that." Artist Sean Wang captured the sentiment.

Marvelous Mommies Greeting Cards offers a full range of cards that celebrate life with children in all its phases from birth to the terrible twos to the teens.

Pregnant Snowmen Christmas Card


Expectant parents now have a holiday card designed especially for them thanks to Marvelous Mommies Greeting Cards. Titled "Pregnant Snowmen", the card features a pregnant snowmen couple in a traditional holiday outdoor setting. The inside text continues the sentiment: "May the miracle of the season be with you. Happy Holidays!"

The card is available in packs of 12 for $9.99 through select retailers or online at the Marvelous Mommies site.

Marvelous Mommies’
Creative Director Sean Wang was inspired to create the unique card after finding no Christmas cards for pregnant women. "The design fits perfectly with the rest of our line," says Wang. "There didn’t seem to be anything else like it out there, which is pretty surprising, really."

"We’ve had such great feedback on the card," says Brenda Brathwaite, Marketing Director for Marvelous Mommies. "I've heard 'It's exactly was I was looking for!' from more than one pregnant woman."
