One thought on “What happens when a baby has enough diapers?

  1. A family that has access to a supply of cloth diapers eliminates the weekly stress of running out of diapers. Of having ONE more thing to worry or fuss over. I think everyone can agree, money aside, a mom’s memory isn’t always her strong suit. I love not having to remember we’re almost out of diapers…because we never are more than a load of laundry away from more ?
