Thoughts From This Week
The school year is wrapping up (how?!), and wow, did I have a moment at my daughter’s preschool performance.
It feels like just yesterday, yet also a lifetime ago, when I wondered how I would make it through another day with her constant screaming—it went on like that until she was 2. Now that I know her better, I understand it was all those big thoughts and emotions she just couldn't express. She's truly a whirlwind of life, always reacting big but with such a sensitive, sweet soul.
I’m just so proud of her. proud of us. We were thinking about having her go to preschool three days a week in the fall, but we’ve decided to stick with two. And it feels right. I just can’t bear to miss out on these fleeting moments any more than I have to.
I'm absolutely smitten with the joys of age three and wish I could just press pause on these moments.
I'm curious, what age has been your favorite, if you have one? For me, it's definitely been age three with both of my kids.

Favorite Products Lately
Every week on my Instagram stories, I highlight the products that I've been really loving—and that have been hits with others too. Here are this week's top picks!
You won't believe the difference our "magical blanket" has made in our lives! It's been a true game-changer. Our 3-year-old has always struggled with sleep, waking up multiple times each night and rarely making it past 6 am. But since using this blanket, everything has changed. The first night she slept through until 8 am!! I believe the extra weight provides comfort and soothes her, allowing for a more restful sleep. We opted for the 3-pound one, and it's been absolutely perfect. And it's not just us – countless families have tried this upon my recommendation, and it’s totally transformed their lives too. Because let’s face it. Sleep is a glorious thing :).
And I also just found my favorite pair of sunglasses! They look so chic but only $15!!!
