Small businesses, like mine, bloom out of a love or a dream or most likely, a combination love-dream that allows us to fulfill our visions in the *real* world. I birthed my business the same year I birthed my son, almost a decade ago- and together the two of us have grown up, making memories, mistakes and building community along the way. I might save some thoughts for my ten year celebration , but I wanted to just repeat something we’ve all heard so many times before, that when you support small businesses you truly do support people, their dreams and their growth. It is not and will never be the easy path to take which is why encouragement is the sun that helps each of us grow. Thank you to everyone whose helped me & mine bloom 💛
