Take a moment for yourself today and check out the headlines that are making us smile this week:

This mama edited her deployed husband into her Christmas card

Danielle Cobo is a mama to twin boys and a proud military spouse. Her husband is currently serving overseas on a year-long deployment. He wasn’t home for this year’s Christmas card photo shoot, so Cobo’s photographer, Shannon Sturgeon, did some photoshop magic to get the whole family in frame and the resulting picture is going viral.

“I am extremely proud of him and grateful for what he’s doing because I think there’s a purpose greater than our own,” Cobo told Tampa NBC affiliate WFLA. “This year’s deployment has been the toughest. By the time he returns, my husband will have missed half of our twins’ lives. With that said, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’m so proud of him.”

When the card went viral, Cobo started getting messages from all over the United States from people who could relate to how she is feeling this holiday season. “I love the holidays,” Cobo told WTVT. “I love Christmas cards. I save Christmas cards. It’s just a way of showing people that though we are apart, we are a family.”

Baby girl goes viral for adorable ‘mean-mugging’ photos

Newborn photos are supposed to be adorable but this baby is looking adorably angry in hers. Baby Luna is taking over the internet thanks to the hilarious expression captured during her professional photoshoot.

“She’s been mean-mugging since day one,” Luna’s dad Christian Musa told Good Morning America. “She’s either mean-mugging non-stop, or just unimpressed.”

Photographer Justine Tuhy says that while Luna (who was born November 15) was totally content during their photo session, “She just gave me the stare down the entire time as well.”

This mom went viral for loving Christmas (and Wawa) too much

Mary Katherine Backstrom is the mom and writer behind MomBabble’s website and social media accounts, and this week she went viral for the most hilarious reason.

Going live from her car in the parking lot of a Wawa gas station, Backstrom cry-laughed into her phone’s camera as she explained how embarrassingly carried away with the holiday spirit she’d become. She was in the Wawa and saw the woman in line next to her only had a ginger ale, so she offered to pay for it to pay the Christmas spirit forward. Then, she came out of the gas station and saw a man washing her car’s windshield.

“‘This is my favorite part of humanity! I love Christmas so much, thank you for doing this,'” Backstrom recalls saying to the guy. “And I gave him a hug.”

The problem? It wasn’t her car. It was that dude’s car. She just hugged and thanked him for cleaning his own car. 😂

She was so embarrassed that she just walked to her own car and pretended like nothing happened, then recorded her video and now the whole world knows about it.

Keep spreading the holiday magic Mary Katherine! You’re hilarious.

Viral PSA reminds us to be kind to retail workers this time of year

Whitney Fleming is the mom and writer behind “Playdates on Friday” and this week she’s going viral for reminding the world to be nice to retail workers this time of year.

In a post that has been shared over 10,000 times, Fleming recalls a recent trip to Target. While chatting with her cashier she learned he’d had a pretty rough shift, as some moms who were stressed out during their Christmas shopping had taken it out on him.

“As the young man handed me my receipt, I handed over the gift card. ‘Have a frappuccino on me. It’s for dealing with all of us crazy, stressed-out moms.’

‘Oh, no, ma’am. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said anything,’ he stammered. You could see he was nervous about getting in trouble.

‘No, I’m sorry, I told him. ‘Have a great holiday.'”

Thanks for the reminder, Whitney.
