Here's a little update, since things have been quiet around here…
Have you ever felt like life keeps throwing curveballs - and they never seem to stop??
That’s how things have felt for us for a while now. 😔
Here’s the latest:
Five months ago, Brandon’s parents moved in with us so we could support them through his mom’s brain cancer journey.
Since then, I’ve stepped into the role of primary caregiver, alongside Brandon’s dad. My 15+ years of CNA experience has certainly helped, but it’s still been a heavy and trying season - one that requires my full presence and energy as her condition worsens.
Because I have to be intentional about where the little bit of energy (both mental and physical) I have left goes, priorities have shifted. I’ve stepped back from social media and allowed life to slow down, focusing on what matters most right now.
The business has taken a bit of a hit without the time and consistency we once had, but we’re not giving up. Brandon continues creating whenever he can - often while also caring for our 9 year old son and handling many of the things I’m unable to keep up with these days.
New pieces are still being carved and added to our Etsy shop as they’re finished - they’re just happening behind the scenes instead of in front of the camera. 😊
📨 If you need to get in touch with us, sending a message through Etsy is the best way.
Thank you for your patience, grace, and continued support during this season. We miss connecting with you and will be back more regularly as soon as life allows. ❤️
