Gosh, this post hit hard. I have been following along for six years. My first baby was two and I was pregnant with our second. You have had a deep, profound impact on my motherhood. It has been such a gift to bear witness to the art you have put into the world. I hope to linger until the very end. Thank you.

Well, now I'm crying. It's past 10pm, my toddler refuses to go to sleep (even though he hasn't napped in 2024), and I'm crying. I don't want to think about living, let alone mothering, in a world without C+C. You and your team at C+C have encouraged me in ways I cannot begin to explain. I have felt seen. known, and loved because of Coffee+Crumbs. Ashlee, I will linger over every magazine, essay, post, newsletter, podcast, etc. well past 2am. Not in a creepy Fred way, but in a I just want to soak up every last drop of encouragement from this amazing group of women way. Okay. Maybe that is creepy. By the way, did you do something different with your hair? 😉
