this frame makes me think about how in our life we interact with so many people, but sometimes we get the privilege to be invited in— to someone’s heart, life, and story.

it is a gift to get to join in the sorrows and joys of another, and though we only see or understand in part, it is a beauty that shapes our hearts.

four years ago we were wed in the backyard of our first home together—

happy anniversary to my love!! it truly is beautiful to learn from your quiet and steadfast ways, a privilege to love you, a gift to be listened to so well, and a joy to live life alongside you.

what a sweet blessing it is to be your wife and to be a family with our sweet ezra boy!

i’ll leave this note with you:

a simple vessel bursting with beauty and life, whose shadow is equally as intricate and beautiful.

and a prayer:

Lord, i pray that my life too may be one of cultivating beauty in simple moments. may the shadow of my life look like the beautiful and intricate interweaving of people who have felt seen, loved, and received— ultimately by you, our kind God who has seen into the depths of us and made a way that we could truly know joy found in Jesus! 🕊️

our bittersweet news 🕊️

The end of July we will be closing our shop.

Like the first picture, this shop has truly become something so beautiful— piece by piece and with great care.

Having the shop has truly been such a humbling experience, learning that God’s time is best, learning ways that my definitions of success and failure can be flawed, and embracing the gift of community.

I’m so so thankful for the beauty, friendships, joy, and growth that has been cultivated in this little space that used to be just a dream drawn out in my journal.

For what’s next for our family closing feels right and we feel so excited for what’s ahead!!! 🤎

Some moments I’ve treasured

1. Creating floral interpretations to poems

2. Designing for weddings— this one’s bridal bouquet

3. Floral workshops!!

4. Hosting kids drawing workshops!! They were so fun and so sweet!!

5. CREATE DAYS! Wow these filled my heart deeply

6. Watching Ezra grow in this place— from taking him there with his bouncer so we could finish painting and putting up shelves, to play dates at the shop with his besties and praying he doesn’t break anything

7. A floral interpretation of “A Small Psalm” by my dear friend Madeline

8. The beautiful moments we’ve gotten to capture! .j.thomas capturing motherhood so beautifully amidst our floral meadow

9. Creating with God all by myself in the shop. These were some of the times I treasured the most.

10. Our opening day!!

💫my heart feels full at the thought of all that has gone into this shop, and the gift it has been.

We will be closing but my friend .shop will be opening her own shop in the space! She is dreaming up so many beautiful things for the space and it’s so special that downtown can experience such a sweet soul! So excited for all she is going to make her shop to be!! 🎀

i’m a business owner but i’m also a mom and these photos feel so true to the challenge and journey that i’ve been on in learning the rhythm of them both as life changes and i continue to grow.

the lighting for this first photo was really bad, and not what we were hoping for but in a sense i feel like it beautifully depicted a truth to that that time.

my breastfeeding journey felt like it started out really dark. I didn’t know what i was doing, ezra would spit up ALOT, so i often felt at a loss of what to do, especially when that was his only form of nourishment.

but help came along through the form of a neighbor who used to be a lactation consultant and she was so kind. it also came through aaron’s encouragement and support, through friends checking in, and through honest prayer and simple recognizing it was hard.

and it did get brighter and it did come with more ease and become more and more beautiful to me. there were many a wedding day spent with breaks to go pump or ezra right there with me as i installed florals. there were breastfeeding sessions in any and all places (iykyk)

but i will always cherish those 20 months of getting to nourish our sweet baby boy and be such a source of safety as he learned day by day more of his surroundings.

thank you thank you emily for capturing one of the last time I nursed ezra. These moments I’ll treasure forever of me and my sweet boy.

happy first anniversary to kylie + michael !!

even the process of set up was so peaceful and beautiful, ezra was on the floor playing with extra flowers and some of kylie’s bridesmaids, jess was doing her thing capturing all the details with the insane light that filters a throughout .space , and it just came together sweet and smooth. so thankful for your trust sweet kylie + michael!!

To consider. To cultivate. To create.

This is the vision I’ve had for DAWN. since the beginning but it’s only becoming more beautiful as it plays out in forms that I never could have forseen.

🕊Truly I feel like these values are what I want to be pillars in all my life.

☁️ At the end is a question for you to consider! Please feel free to dm or comment your answer!! I’m so curious to know!!

Whisping World

“Translucent pink and blue
whisps of air surround.

No temperature to the air,
or the breeze whispering through
just a gentle stirring.

Only fog reveals the floor
on which I stand.

This is solitude, but how?”

-Madeline Mullenbach Hall

|| Madeline had shared a poem on her story a few weeks back that really captivated me (as does most everything she writes), but this one in particular— I remember it making me think of the paradox that is not knowing… “Only fog reveals the floor on which I stand”

We do not know where we are going or where we will end up in this life, and there can be great fear and anxiety in that or there can be great trust and peace.

And I’m learning that it’s ok to feel both— to live in the in between of not knowing,
knowing only where our feet they stand.

there really are so many more thoughts I have to share in relation to this, but for now I’ll leave this here.

it’s an honor to create floral poems alongside Madeline’s words and to be welcomed into her thoughts and heart.

sometimes little poems begin to form in my mind so here’s a silly one for you for VALENTINE’S DAY 💌

dreaming of spring, but also learning to be present in the very season we’re in. embracing the cold and bundling up— finding simple rhythms that bring joy and a sense of grounding to the days, while planning with diligence and anticipation for the season that brings new life and new beginnings in so many ways.

slowly working on some things that i thought would only ever be dreams. excited to share when it’s time. 🕊

it has truly been such a joy to open our space for people to gather, to learn, to share, and simple be.

last night was so sweet and i feel SO excited thinking about all the workshops, create days, and all the beautiful humans that we get to open our space to
✨

and so thankful for my sweet friend Madeline capturing our cozy Christmas workshop 🤍

12/21/2023

i’ve been thinking on the beauty of the space that can be made at the table— for sharing.

in joy and sadness
in discovering a person
in listening and laughter.

tonight we had dinner with a new friend spontaneously, even in what can be for many and has been a busy season for us, and over hot soup and leftover pasta we shared in the joy of simply being together.

my soul feels refreshed, and i can’t help but think of how Jesus invites me to the table to feast on the very best and to simply enjoy being with Him. He invites me to freely enjoy and deeply delight.

i pray i might be quick to accept daily that beautiful invitation and joyfully invite others too 🕊

had a conversation with a friend recently and i shared the anxieties that have weighed my heart down over and over again. and she listened and responded with such truth and i felt so seen by God and loved that He would use my friend to speak to the deep worries and fears i’ve held in my heart.

during that conversation i felt like something broke— in a good way.

this moment captured by seems to encapsulate exactly the feeling i felt last wednesday— peace and a stillness found as the light comes dancing in, where beauty and God’s goodness seems suddenly so clear.

Rest, in its fullest sense, always leads us back to the steadfastness of God. Rest is not simply self-care, though it may involve aspects of that. The rest Gkd calls us go involves dwelling “in the gentle healing presence of our Lord”finding our “spiritual abode”. Nouwen writes, “As we come to realize that it is not we who live, but Christ who lives in us, that he is our true self, we can slowly let our compulsions melt away and begin to experience the freedom of the children of God.”
