Read MoreMy husband really came through for Mother’s Day this year and got me a very nice Herschel Hip Pack with a bunch of first aid kit supplies that I can add to the fanny pack and hang by our front door, ready to grab any time that we are taking a walk around the city! It includes just enough simple first aid supplies that can clean up and patch scrapes and cuts and get us home in one piece for a deeper clean if needed.
