30 Something 🍾

There’s something special about sharing a birthday with your only daughter. As someone who doesn’t typically celebrate birthdays now I always have a reason to celebrate 1/13.

Grateful for another year, my baby girl, this glow. I look forward to another year of drinking my water and minding my business.

Nothing was perfect, but 2024 owes me nothing.

Happy New Year Hoochies🪩

“My favorite dumplings 🫶🏾 was delish. The limited menu made it easy for my kids to order their own food. My son crushed the crab & pork dumplings, and Moo and I tore down the beef & onion ones.

We spent the morning exploring Chinatown and Reading Terminal. After pulling up to dance class, we had to pivot since the building next door was on fire.

I love Saturdays in the city with my babies. Next week: a farm trip and cider sipping.

All weekend
