Another “Why didn’t I think of that?” Moment

 
It boils my blood to read stories like this one, about the two women from Calgary, Canada. I’m not pissed because they are successfully running a baby prep business for expecting parents.

If this was my child…

I cannot find the words to express how utterly sickened I was at hearing the story of Victoria Lindsay.
