A writer at Asia One wrote some lovely comments about us in her story…

“In search of inspiration, I turned to blogs like The Fashionable Housewife (www.thefashionablehousewife.com), on which editor-in-chief (and housewife) Sarah-Jean Ballard and a panel of contributors dole out housewife-centric fashion and beauty advice.

Ballard is also in the habit of posting snapshots of her daily outfit online, laid out and itemized on a bed. Her style is different from mine but her meticulous passion for fashion is inspiring.”

Now I’m using my @whirlyboard balance board with my standing desk, crushing workouts on BODi, and foam rolling the tightness away with my @oceanfoam  roller like a boss. 

Highly recommend these sneakers!!!! Super comfortable, only $50 a pair, and Prime shipping from Amazon. You can’t go wrong.

I finally found a way to keep his name close to me I finally found a way to keep his name close to me every day. 💛 🐢 🌊 

This simple ring from Mint & Lily holds the name of my stillborn son—delicate, beautiful, and deeply meaningful. It’s a small way I get to remember Dylan, honor him, and carry his memory with me in the quiet moments of motherhood.

Custom jewelry like this makes space for the unseen stories so many of us carry. 💔❤️‍🩹

If you’ve ever wanted to wear your child’s name—whether they’re in your arms or in Heaven—this is a beautiful way to do it.

💍 You can customize your own name ring with @mintandlily and wear your love right on your hand.☺️

(My other ring is his birthstone)💚
