I've been admiring the work of ONE moms since their launch. It's hard not to be touched by the stories they share of mothers from around the world.

But this year? This year it's different. This year, many of the  moms went to Ethiopia  are personal friends of mine. This year, I enthusiastically accepted ONE's invitation to be a partner blog.

So right before the group left for Ethiopia, they sent me a beautiful package that included a scarf made by the women of LiveFashionABLE.com.

I wore my scarf all around Boston, which is as far away from Ethiopia as you can imagine. But I felt a connection, thanks to the story of the one mom that made my scarf.

As the week went on, I checked my Facebook and Instagram for updates from my friends.
