Oof, this one's getting me in the gut.

Going to be real, real here. I don't love these types of posts. For lots of reasons. One person's best year is also another person's worst. And that's not lost on me.

Sometimes I'm also afraid that if I acknowledge the good too loudly, the universe will notice, and take some of it back. Writing that out doesn't make a lot of sense. I don't believe in a vindictive universe. But maybe it's superstition. And even though it makes me nervous, this year deserves a round-up post.

2025 was monumental. In so many big ways and in so many small ways.

I bought a VW van and started a mobile art and play business with my sister. Our networks and communities made our launch possible.

I turned 40 and found a new confidence and sense of peace with myself.

I moved out of the baby stage of motherhood. And it's so bittersweet.

I got some travels in, with the family and with my husband. Went to Ireland for Easter with all the kids for amazing extended family traditions to Mexico with Macaroni KID, to Colorado, North Carolina, Florida.

I visited libraries and playgrounds, play spaces and community spaces, new cafes and hubs. I had the absolute privilege of doing this on my schedule and usually with my kiddos, which is all I really ever wanted.

I cheered for local businesses. Built relationships with people and places that do so much for us. That I'm so grateful for personally and professionally.

Made new friends, stayed close to old ones. Missed many faces as the patterns of daily life changed from year to year.

Ran our first camps and after-school programs. Sold out events and canceled ones for low enrollment.

Learned.all.the.time. Usually from mistakes, often from other people.

I didn't send holiday cards, but I did drive Santa around in a van. It was joy.

I didn't sleep enough, drink enough water, move enough. Continued through the stages of motherhood where we get back burnered, but we keep trying. Tiny steps are still steps.

Well, enough about me, anyway. What about you? How are you leaving 2025? What are you hoping for in 2026? Thank you for being here ❤️ Wishing you all things good in the new year.

A new kind of play has recently arrived in Westchester and it's perfect for exploring over the winter break!

New in Bedford Hills, the bricks + mini-fig store is built for creators of all ages.

From a toddler Duplo play area to build-your-own mini-figs (engaging for all ages, trust me, my husband I spent a solid half-hour on it), every visit brings new discoveries. With a motto of "rebuild, reuse and reimagine" you can feel extra inspired while supporting local.

Buy, sell, or trade your favorite builds, and explore bulk bins full of ideas waiting to come to life + new and retired inventory, too.

⏰Sundays 11-5
Mon - Sat 10 - 7

📍748 North Bedford Road, Bedford Hills NY 10507

Stay tuned for parties, build sessions, and new events soon!

Opening this month’s Pampered Chef Kids’ Cooking Club box felt like unwrapping a whole new world of creativity.

Our home is very sensory-driven, so I’m always looking for activities that bring hands-on learning, calm engagement, and confidence-building to the kitchen. This kit checks every box.

Braylon’s face when he saw the tools? PURE JOY. And the way every piece is designed for little hands… 10/10.

We’re using this as a way to:
• build independence
• strengthen fine-motor skills
• practice following steps
• stay present + connected
• make the kitchen feel like a safe sensory space

If you’ve been searching for a way to get your kids excited about cooking (without chaos), this series is a win. Shop with your local consultant or online at https://bit.ly/43MPMtA
