A Christmas miracle has unfolded! 💫

Our Instagram page, once lost to a grinchy hacker, has been restored most unexpectedly! 💫

It wasn’t the elves at Meta who came to our rescue, but a mysterious shepherd who showed up at our door. No one knows his true identity or how he worked his magic to bring back what was lost. All we know is that his kindness has restored our page, and for that, we are eternally grateful. 🫶
