A little Mother’s Day note (and a coffee on me! ☕)


Before the day gets away from me, I just wanted to send a quick Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms in my little corner of the internet… and also to the daycare providers, preschool teachers, and caregivers who spend their days loving on little ones and supporting families. :)

I know Mother’s Day can look really different from person to person.

Some of you are in the thick of raising tiny humans.
Some of you spent the week helping a classroom full of kids create special gifts for their moms.
Some of you are missing someone today.
Some of you are exhausted.
Some of you are celebrating.

Wherever today finds you, I hope you know that what you do matters.

Thank you for the love, patience, creativity, and care you pour into children every single day.

The little things you do become the big things they remember.

And thank you, too, for supporting my little shop and letting my handprint crafts become part of your memories and traditions. That means more to me than you know.

Also… I’d love to buy one of you a Starbucks drink today. :)

Just hit reply to this email and tell me one thing you’re proud of yourself for lately.

It can be something big or something tiny.

Tonight, I’ll randomly choose one reply and send you a little coffee treat on me!

Wishing you a Happy Mother’s Day full of hugs, snacks you don’t have to share, and at least one warm cup of coffee.

You deserve it!

Good morning! I'm sitting here with a cup of coffee, waiting for my 3-year-old to wake up, and excited to deliver your June freebie. :) I had so much fun designing this one yesterday. Lately, my boys have been completely obsessed with soccer. They've been collecting player stamps in their FIFA books and learning about all the different teams that will be coming to Mexico in the next few weeks to play. (My husband teaches them while I listen.) So when I sat down to create a Father's Day craft...

Thank you to everyone who replied to my Mother’s Day email this morning! Reading through your messages made my day. A few replies made me laugh, a lot of them made me tear up, and all of them reminded me how lucky I am to have such kind people in this little community. I hope you feel comfortable enough to hit reply to any of my emails and let me know how you're doing. I really love being able to connect with other moms from "home" while living abroad. :) Congratulations to Ruthanne, who was...

Good morning! It's been a LONG year so far, but we've made it to March 1st.... I'm not going to lie. I'm tired. My husband and I both work from home in Puerto Vallarta. We are extremely grateful and blessed to be safe and well with our kids. While the vandalism occurred in the streets of Puerto Vallarta last Sunday, we were privileged enough to be able to keep our two little boys safe at home with us. Our family and friends across Mexico are also doing well and I'm happy to report everything...
