United Way Women of Tocqueville members gathered virtually on April 28 for their third-annual baby shower, celebrating 71 expectant and new moms from our partners Abide Women’s Health Services, Lumin Education and Parkland Nurse Family Partnership.
The Women of Tocqueville are a group of passionate United Way supporters who work to advance our mission of improving access to education, income and health in North Texas. Each year, the group hosts a virtual baby shower to support new and expectant moms to ensure their babies get a strong start in life.
During this year’s shower, moms and volunteers played baby shower games, such as Animal Gestation, where they matched the animal with the average number of days they are pregnant, and The Price is Right, where they guessed the cost of baby items such as diapers, baby bottles, bibs and pacifiers.
During the shower, moms shared what they were most excited about, including:

- “Being his mommy.”
- “I can’t wait to hear his voice.”
- “Having a little best friend.”
- “Remember to sleep.”
- “Take time for yourself.”
- “You got this!”
- “You’re amazing!”
