Terrifying Video Shows Child Danger When Dresser Drawers Topple

April 4, 2018 By My SD Moms

This video will scare any parent.

A young boy in Thailand is playing in a living room area when the chest of drawers he is playing with topples toward him while another child looks on.

We’re very happy to report that the child doesn’t appear to be injured as he seems to scramble out of the way just in time, only to be caught by the edge of the furniture before making it away to safety.

Hearing the noise from upstairs, we assume that it’s mom who comes running to his aid.

This is a good lessen for parents to secure top-heavy furniture, TVs and appliances and to keep tempting things off high shelves.

Family Vacation Ruined When Pregnant Mom Is Kicked Off Disney Cruise

April 3, 2018 By My SD Moms

Emily Jackson is a vlogger from St. Louis and she and her family of ten were all set for a fun Disney Cruise vacation. That’s when it all went wrong.

Jackson is pregnant with her third child and it seems she was just a week past the Cruise line’s pregnancy policy cutoff. She and her family had flown from St. Louis to Miami and were ready to board the cruise. It wasn’t so much that they were prevented from boarding – it was the way they were treated – being met by armed security guards.

While waiting in the terminal, she and the family’s belongings were sniffed by a canine unit while guards armed with AR-15 rifles stood by to watch over the proceedings.

While the rest of her family would have been allowed to board, they naturally decided to forego their Disney Cruise vacation. Instead of being allowed to wait in the terminal while their luggage was offloaded, they were forced to wait outside in the heat.

Overall, not a very “magical” experience.

Being a vlogger, Jackson kept her camera rolling and recording most of the disappointing moments, as you’ll see below.

Yes, they got their cruise fare refunded, but so far no compensation for the misery and trouble they were put through.

Hoda Kotb Cries Over Kelly Clarkson’s Song Inspired by Her Children’s Book (Video)

March 12, 2018 By My SD Moms

Kelly Clarkson is known for her amazing singing talents, but is also famous for her ability to be real on and off the stage. Kelly is known for causing a tear or two with her songs that touch our hearts, but Hoda Kotb really felt some love when she heard Kelly sing her new song, I’ve Loved You Since Forever on the Today Show.

The song was inspired by Hoda’s new children’s book. Shortly after writing the book Hoda said she thought, “Wouldn’t that be cool if someone could sing the book?” That’s when singer, songwriter and mom Kelly Clarkson came into the picture.

Hoda even got involved by recording a shaker in the background! Hoda couldn’t hold back the tears as she thanked Kelly for translating her book into song. It was such a touching moment, it caused Kelly to start crying. Just as a warning, you may want to grab some tissue – you’ll probably cry too after watching it.
