Look what Emmy & Ginny made!

One of my favorite parts of being a mom is watching the girls beam with pride when they create something they're excited about. The only problem? The fridge was quickly running out of space, and artwork was constantly getting covered up by the next masterpiece. 😅

So David fired up the 3D printer and made these adorable custom magnets just for them! 💜

Now when Emmy or Ginny finishes a drawing, painting, or craft, they can proudly display it on the fridge with their very own "Look What Emmy Made" and "Look What Ginny Made" magnets. It's such a simple thing, but it makes their creations feel extra special and gives them a dedicated place to show off their hard work!

I love finding little ways to celebrate creativity and help kids feel proud of what they make! 🥰

Honestly, these might be some of my favorite things David has printed yet!

David's 3D Printing Hobby: "It's Contained" Era Officially Over

Remember when David's 3D printing hobby fit neatly on a desk in his office?

Yeah... those were simpler times.

What started as "just one printer" has somehow evolved into a full-scale take over complete with multiple printers, filament storage, and now a shelving system that's officially spilling beyond the boundaries of his office.

At this point, I'm not sure if the printers are multiplying on their own or if he's secretly opening a factory.

The latest expansion features a towering printer rack that can probably be seen from space, a step stool to access the upper levels, and enough filament to survive the next several supply chain crises.

The good news: he can print just about anything.

The bad news: the 3D printing empire has now expanded into neighboring territories.

We're currently accepting thoughts and prayers as we monitor the situation and wait to see which room gets annexed next. 😂🖨️🏭

SUPPORT LOCAL

Two years ago, we dropped off a tiny little girl at and next year we'll be getting ready to send a confident, kind, curious, and capable young lady off to Kindergarten!

There truly wasn't a more perfect place for Emmy to grow and thrive these past two years. The teachers and staff at HOPE have loved her, encouraged her, challenged her, and celebrated her every step of the way. They created an environment where she felt safe, valued, and excited to learn each day!

We are so grateful for the countless hugs, lessons, crafts, songs, stories, friendships, and memories that have shaped her into the little person she is today. The patience, dedication, and genuine care shown by her teachers have meant more to our family than words can express!

Because of the incredible foundation HOPE has provided, Emmy is more than ready for her next adventure in Kindergarten. While we're excited to see what comes next, it's hard to believe how fast these years have flown by. It feels like just yesterday we were walking her into preschool for the very first time!

Thank you, HOPE Preschool, for helping our sweet girl learn, grow, and flourish. We will always be grateful for the love and care you poured into her!

Once a HOPE kid, always a HOPE kid! 🎓
