Rocking my little one to sleep and got all 🥺 thinking about how much it truly means to me that you guys show up and support our small business so fiercely. I don’t think it’s a secret that owning a small business is a big undertaking— but sprinkle in a little 2020 and 2021—and we’ve been hit with things that I would have never expected and quite frankly have had to really navigate with faith alone. So, thank you, for being so loyal to us, for your fellowship, for your encouraging words and for taking this little business from my closet floor to where we are today. As we head into Q4 please know how important it is to keep cheering these small businesses on—I’m making a conscious effort to buy gifts early and buy them locally! Supporting local pharmacies, bakeries, mom and pop restaurants and your friends who are artists and makers is more important than ever. There’s never been a better time than now to really show your support, because I can tell you that this is a real depiction of what it looks like— feeding my family dinner at our conference table, my husband pulling multiple post midnight shifts trying to expand our warehousing, I’m assembling boxes for launch shipments, my 4 year old still in her school uniform cruising around way past her bed time with the new shopping carts and my 8 year old making “new customer welcome gifts” that go in first time orders. Real families are impacted when you shop small, real people do a happy dance and give high fives when you place an order and we genuinely care about giving you a great experience 💕 going to bed with a grateful heart for your support today and always. Love you all -M
