I just wanted to thank everyone for all of your responses to my last post. The comments, letters, private messages, texts, emails, and voicemails all meant so much to me. It's been 7 weeks since I temporarily closed the shop. In 20 years, it's by far the longest that I have ever been away from it. As of this week, I have finally decided to reopen. Today will be day 4, and it's been going nice and smooth. I love what I do...working with beautiful flowers and creating special pieces for all of the special moments that we all celebrate. It's been therapeutic, healthy, and a purposeful distraction from a broken heart. Thank you again for all of your support, kindness, patience, and comments. It gave me strength. I am looking forward to reconnecting with everyone as time moves forward.

On August 17th, my wife, who I loved so deeply & unconditionally, unexpectedly passed away at the age of 47. We met each other in high school at the age of 16, & from that point forward we shared a journey of boundless love, a long history, & a wholesome connection filled with wonderful memories that also included many of life's challenges that all marriages face. With much success, we navigated through all of that. We shared many triumphs, which allowed us to uphold a bond & a connection that can only be formed with time, patience, & a deep desire for unending commitment & companionship. 12 years ago, we introduced into this world a magnificent being, our son, our shining star. My son & I, along with our family & friends, have undoubtedly suffered a deeply profound loss. The magnitude of her passing, & the ever-present void that tremendously becomes more real as the time moves forward weighs heavily, & the obstacles that we have been forced to face in the past few short weeks have been complicated & demanding. During this time, I decided to temporarily close the shop so that I may shift all of my focus upon my son to make sure all of his needs & care are met first before mine. In light of these few short weeks, we stand strong & additionally remain determined in these uncharted waters to reset the stage. Together, my son & I are beginning to enter a new path of repair, recovery, to rebuild a new life one day at a time. I wanted to extend our heartfelt thankfulness for all of your support, kindness, generosity, & most importantly, your patience while we navigate through this. For those who have lost someone you love are the ones who truly know & fully understand the magnitude. Even as a florist, sensitive, attentive, & sympathetic, ...I was always able to feel my customers' energy. Now, my understanding has reached a new meaning. I'm hoping to be back at the shop soon, & will keep you updated.

Happy Sunday! As I'm resting up for this 7 day stretch, I figured I would post some inspirational examples of what we do, and bestow a friendly reminder that Mother's Day truly is around the corner. If you're planning on sending mom flowers, you may want to consider placing your order sooner rather than later. Flower shops can reach capacity as early as Wednesday or Thursday for the weekend. As many of you know, we are a small boutique and only take a certain amount of orders for each day. All super specific orders for the holiday are booked, so we have now moved into "designer's choice" with some parameters for the time being. Designer's choice with parameters can give you options such as low and lush or vertical displays. Other options include the vibe of the piece, which can range from modern to organic, soft/ feminine, to bright/cheerful, etc. I never made any mention of it, but I celebrated 20 years in business this April. This will make my 20th Mother's Day as a shop owner, but not as a designer as I have been doing this for longer. What a crazy ride it has been, and I couldn't have done it without your support and kindness. Thank you🙏. We look forward to making your mom's happy with beautiful flowers and designs🙂.
