Today, we take a quiet moment to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Though our young students may not yet understand the full meaning of today, we hope to plant seeds of gratitude, respect, and remembrance that will grow with them.

Wishing your family a safe, peaceful, and reflective Memorial Day.

To the everyday magic-makers raising tiny humans with big feelings — we celebrate you. 🌟

Whether you're a mom, stepmom, grandma, foster parent, or a mother figure of any kind — your presence matters in more ways than you know.

We also want to acknowledge those experiencing grief, longing, or mixed feelings today. However you are arriving to this Mother’s Day, we see you.

Thank you for all the care, comfort, and creativity you bring into your child’s world — especially on the days that don’t come with cards and crafts.

With love,
The Astor
