Happy Mother's Day! Motherhood isn’t just one story—it’s a thousand different journeys, and every single one deserves to be seen.

If things had gone exactly to plan, we would have spent this weekend surrounded by community, sunshine, and a whole lot of "Three-Rex" birthday chaos. It’s tough not being together to celebrate three years of memories, especially with Mother’s Day right around the corner and summer playdate season calling our names!

We know it’s felt a bit quiet. We know it’s not the May we all imagined. But even if we couldn't celebrate together this weekend, please know we are still here.

We are working behind the scenes because this community—and the connection we share—is too important to let fade. We’re channeling all that "birthday energy" into something big: A Family Fun Event this July! ☀️

It’s about:
• Bringing us together after this time apart.
• Raising the funds necessary to keep our mission moving forward.
• Rediscovering the joy of play that defines who we are.

We miss the laughter and the energy of our families filling the room, but we are looking forward to a reunion that will be well worth the wait. Hang in there with us. We’ll be back!
