Hello friends. I have had a significant loss in my family and need to take a break from blogging this week.
My sweet 21 year old niece has passed away after a three and a half year long battle with cancer. Our hearts are broken, our spirits shattered, and we need a bit of time to gather together and regroup.
We will emerge from these dark days full of inspiration from the magnificent example she provided us.
May a divine light shine on you and grace your days as our beloved Camille did us.
