We’re so excited to “unveil” our Presenting Sponsor for this year’s gala, Hendrickson Interiors!

Julianne Hendrickson | Tampa, Palm Beach, Cashiers, NC is a full-service interior design firm led by owner and designer Julianne Hendrickson. Based in Tampa, their team creates elevated, one-of-a-kind spaces that are both beautiful and functional, with services ranging from full-service design for renovations and new builds to virtual consultations, floor plans and room refreshes. Their approach is all about creating homes that reflect the people and families who live in them, while seamlessly managing every detail from design to installation.

But for us, Hendrickson Interiors is so much more than a supportive sponsor. Julianne has been a constant supporter and friend in Alexa’s life, and her family has continued to show up for the Taylor Koulouris Foundation in such a meaningful way. Their children proudly serve on The Littles Board, and this is a family we know we can count on to be there for us, not just through financial support, but through their time, presence and genuine care for our mission.

We are incredibly grateful for the Hendrickson family and Hendrickson Interiors as they continue to help us carry Taylor’s legacy forward. Thank you for believing in the foundation, showing up for our community, and being such an important part of the Taylor Koulouris Foundation.  We are so honored to have Hendrickson Interiors as our Presenting Sponsor and can’t wait to celebrate with them at this year’s gala!

Back to School Blessing

Dear God,
As we go back to school and step into this new season, remind us that you are with us through every change and transition. Give us the courage to be kind, welcoming, and encouraging to everyone we meet.

Help us bless the teachers, coaches, counselors, and friends who pour into us each day. Give us open minds to learn new things and open hearts to build new friendships.

Thank you for the gift of school, the rhythm of a new routine, and the joys that come with a new season. When we feel overwhelmed by anxiety or expectations, help us slow down, lean on you, and focus on the good things ahead.

Amen

What a joy to be able to celebrate and support Maggie's Mission !!

Maggie has been diagnosed with an aggressive bone cancer, Ewing sarcoma. With the support of friends and family around her, she started this foundation to raise money that could go toward finding a cure for her disease.

The Parker family attended her recent bake sale which was a HUGE success. They completely SOLD OUT and raised over $15,000!!!

Missions they support include: Finn's Fighters Children's Dream Fund and the St. Joseph’s Hospitals Foundation Children’s Hospital Facility Dog Program.

If you’d like to support Maggie's Mission you can
1. Donate directly to the Maggie’s Mission page
2. Share their social media page to friends
3. Host another bake sale!!
4. Get your child involved, Maggie is an amazing role model for children
5. Keep Maggie in your prayers

July is Bereaved Parents Awareness Month. 

I had a whole post written about what losing a child does to a mother, to any parent, but the last two weeks rewrote it for me. My stepdad needed open heart surgery, and the very next day my mom had a heart attack.

After you lose a child there is this looming fear that sits right underneath the surface. All. The. Time. It’s not a fear of something else bad happening, because that is inevitable in life. It’s that when things like this do happen the trauma that sits right below the surface inside of you comes back and there is no way to stop it. It cracks open a grief response in my kids, in my husband, in me that you have worked so hard to suppress. 

Here’s the truth nobody tells you about losing a child: It doesn’t just devastate you once. It reshapes the rest of your life. Every hospital hallway, the beeping of the heart monitor in the hospital room, every phone call about someone sick, every sad situation that life brings, it all reaches back and finds Taylor again.

Since she died, I’ve worked every single day to keep myself just above the surface of my grief, to show up for Ty, Taytum, and Ryan and the people in my life that I love. But when it hits, it takes everything in me to still be the one who shows up. Not because I don’t want to be there, but because I know how close I am to falling back into the hell I have fought so hard to climb out of.

So what do you do? You show up, you work hard, and care for those that need us, all while knowing you are slipping back into that depression.

This is what bereaved parents carry every single day. So today and each day please know:
I see you.
I’m sorry.
I’m here.
