| 0:00.0 | Megan, we are welcoming a new sponsor of the podcast today. And I think they're going to be a hit with our |
| 0:05.4 | audience because this brand promises to save mom's time and give them better sleep, which, |
| 0:11.1 | you know, off the top of my head, those are two of the things moms want most, right? The company is |
| 0:15.7 | called slumber and they make slumber lock a handy tool that holds bed sheets in place. |
| 0:21.2 | Sarah, loose or tangled up sheets, I feel like, are a universal struggle for families, |
| 0:26.4 | especially when you have kids who toss and turn. |
| 0:28.7 | I can definitely remember going into my kids' room in the morning and finding them wrapped up in a tangle of sheets, |
| 0:34.5 | which I would then, of course, have to put back in place. Who wants to do that? |

| 1:14.2 | Okay, Megan, we were chatting about your planter that you got from Wayfar the other day. |
| 1:19.0 | I'm so curious how it's going and what other plans do you have for your deck this summer? |
| 1:23.5 | Okay, Sarah, I am so excited about this. |
| 1:25.4 | So I got a tiered planter that I got for herbs and lettuces, |
| 1:29.5 | and I planted seeds a couple of weeks ago, and now all the plants are poking up their little |
| 1:34.7 | green heads, and it makes me so happy to see them. I also got a package of four big grow bags |
| 1:40.8 | from Wayfair that hold a ton of dirt, And those are good for plants that need a little more |
