This little business was never supposed to just be “selling stuff.”

It became part healing.
Part survival.
Part proving to myself I could still build something after losing my Mom.

Some days it’s exhausting.

But some days it feels like she’s still sitting beside me cheering me on.

Sometimes the body says:
“Absolutely not today.”

But moms still show up anyway.

Maybe not standing.
Maybe not at 100%.
But still there.
Still watching.
Still loving.
Still trying.

And honestly… that counts too.

Tiny little things honestly make me happiest sometimes.

Cute car coasters.
Fresh coffee.
Good music.
Windows down.

That’s therapy at this point. 😂

One thing farm life taught me is that peace usually isn’t loud.

It’s little things.

Coffee outside.
Kids laughing.
Animals wandering around.
Fresh laundry blowing in the wind.
A quiet sunset after a hard day.

That’s the good stuff.

I swear chickens have personalities bigger than most humans. 😂

Which one would you rather deal with for a full day:
🐓 an angry rooster
🐐 a stubborn goat
🦆 screaming ducks
🐄 a cow that escaped

I’m choosing ducks because at least they’re cute while causing problems.

Some days I clean houses all day, come home exhausted, feed animals, answer messages, make orders, and wonder if I’m completely insane for trying to build a business too.

Then somebody places an order.
Or shares a post.
Or follows the page.

And somehow that tiny little thing keeps me going.

Nothing smells more like home than fresh bread cooling on the counter late at night.

Especially when everybody keeps “testing” slices before it’s even ready. 😂

I know kids won’t remember every little thing from childhood.

But I hope they remember this feeling.

Warm sunshine.
Dirty feet.
Holding chickens like babies.
Running barefoot outside until dark.

That kind of childhood sticks with you.

I think the reason I like making tumblers so much is because every single one ends up matching somebody’s personality perfectly.

Funny.
Sarcastic.
Country.
Soft.
Chaotic.
Sweet.

This one definitely belongs to somebody who has zero patience left for nonsense. 😂

Some mornings around here are peaceful.

Some mornings somebody escaped, somebody stepped in p**p, the ducks are yelling, and I can’t find my coffee because I left it somewhere outside again. 😂

But honestly… I wouldn’t trade this life now.

Funny considering I grew up a city girl.

18 years ago I would’ve never believed this would become home.
