30 Days of Goodness (& a birthday too!)

Sunday, December 2, 2012 by Jessika Hepburn

30 days of goodness, oh my handmade

Oh how I love December! It isn’t just the holidays, or the fact that it is my birthday (the 18th), my Mister’s birthday (the 16th), AND our anniversary (the 17th) all the week before Christmas, it is also the spirit of goodness that infuses the world. I always wish I could make it last forever! This year is extra special because I will be turning 30 and Chris and I will be entering our 10th year together. It is hard to believe he was 19 and I was 20 when we met, now we are looking back on a decade of birthdays. EEP! In honour of this special month I’m shamelessly throwing myself a virtual birthday party and have rallied all our contributors into crafting up some goodness filled posts for us!

Nothing makes me happier than notes in the mail so if you want to join in the birthday fun & pop some goodness for my next decade into your mailbox this is the one time I am going to shamelessly ask for some loving! You can mail any birthday wishes to Jessika Hepburn, PO Box 1690, Lunenburg Nova Scotia, B0J 2C0, Canada

This month we’ll be sharing posts that make us happy, printables and tutorials just for fun, and of course some seasonal sweetness (+ a dose or two of silliness!). I’ll also be sharing some extra posts this month on a few of my favourite things & updates on our new site. I hope you will join us to celebrate the holidays and my birthday extravaganza, let the goodness begin!

 Ps: Be sure to check out our second Community Critique post and enter to be December’s winner!

Care/Carry/Cure an essay from ‘You Care Too Much’

In June of 2016 I supported my love Chris as we dealt with the death of both his parents and a co-worker over a three week period. This essay written the summer of those deaths is my attempt to make sense of grief and the struggle to carry all that I care for. Originally published […]
