This is not the post that I wanted to make, but I think that many of you knew that it was coming.
I say this with a broken heart - we are shutting our store down.
Ashley and I have shed many tears about this decision, but it is what is right for our families.
Anyone that has taken the time to get to know me, knows that I have been struggling for a while with juggling my home life and having the store open. And now that I'm expecting and I'm sick all the time, I just can't be what my community needs - what my family needs.
And as much as I love my community, my family comes first. I have not been the mother or the wife or the friend that I need to be. My joy has slowly faded away. I used to really, truly love what I do and now I dread each day.
I don't consider this a failure. There's nothing wrong in stepping back and regrouping. Things might change and maybe we will be back, but if we don't ever reopen that's okay too.
And just because we are shutting the store down does not mean that I'm closing my business. We are just going to go back to working from home.
I hope that all of you know just how much we love and appreciate you. The love and support that has been shown to us over the last several years has been amazing.
You will still see us around!
