17 Reasons Target Is the F*cking Best
There are a few things moms just can't live without: caffeine, pants with elastic waists, and that magical place where we can feel both productive and inspired — Target. OK, so we may consistently come out with more than we went in for, but we're not complaining (we needed those new throw pillows, OK?!). Between the seriously chic home decor, the affordable (and stylish) shoes, and the groceries, we could honestly just set up shop and happily live in an aisle forever. Since Target holds such a special place in our hearts, we've composed a love letter to our favorite store . . . in GIF form, of course. Enjoy!
