Today is International Women’s Day, a celebration acknowledging women. Why don’t we participate in something that moves women’s rights, lives and initiatives.
Social media posts and texts are cute, but go deeper this woman’s month by showing a woman you appreciate her with an act of love. Here are some ideas or perhaps a check off list.
