It’s the little things that mean the most. I love this photo of my son checking out a new book given as a gift back at his apartment on the night of his college graduation.

Unreal to reconnect with my best friend Julie after 40 years! Thank you Facebook. Even though she refused to bring her roller skates 😂 I’m super excited for many more fun times ahead for us! 💕

Small business, fantastic owner, amazing handbag…holidays are coming… :)

So… I was sitting, enjoying lunch in NYC and looked over to see my very first IRL Birkin bag. As someone that loves handbags it was pretty amazing. Then I looked down and saw my trusty LL Bean Boat & Tote and thought “wouldn’t it be cool if they did a collaboration?” And THEN IT HIT ME - I can make a bag inspired by a Birkin and by a Boat & Tote. So I did! And I LOVE IT SO MUCH! I’m calling her the Jane Bag and we’re going to make them to order - this way you can add a pocket or two if you want, choose your lining, add a clasp, etc. Isn’t that great? I’m so excited to see how you make your Jane bag perfect! - jc

Being a mom is by far one of my favorite blessings. Never take a day for granted. I love my boys so much. Happy Son’s Day Noah and Luke Lawton. You mean the world to me every day. ☺️
