Life can be such a contradiction sometimes. Moments of deep pain and loss walking arm-in-arm with moments of pure joy. I love that you were able to find happiness and meaning in this family tradition during a time of grief. It was so fun to watch along via IG stories! This kind of reminds me of that Mary Oliver quote:
I love your idea of creating traditions, and Bonne Mamman is my favorite jam!
If you love their jam, I highly recommend the advent calendar!

“We shake with joy, we shake with grief.
What a time they have, these two
housed as they are in the same body.”
Grief and joy together in the same body. Ain't that the truth.
This is beautiful, Gina. I'm so sorry for the recent loss of your friend. I love the intentional moments you create with your kids. Hugs🩷
Thanks, Beth. Giving you a huge right back
