Been There, Taught That This page is for elementary educators to view resources they can use for their classroom as well as a place to view the newest notepads I am creating!

Notepads are great gifts for teachers, nurses, kids and anyone else in between!

This clip went viral a few years ago. I had no idea why until the comments started rolling in. I was shocked to see how many of you were affected so negatively working in your family business. I think about it a lot in times where my patients is short or I’m just trying to hurry in times where it’s easy to snap at a kiddo that’s watching my every move. Many people said this video helped “heal their inner child.” Those comments made me sad your little heart was broken years ago just for helping or learning. Those comments helped solidify that I want our business to be something my kids look back on with happy memories and pride. So thankful to all that shared their thoughts and for the support!

✨remember you’re sweet kiddos are watching and listening all the time. We are their compass on how to navigate stress, mistakes, disappointment as well as joy, respect and resilience! It’s a heavy job, but what a privilege it is!

JAC was learning to stamp notepads in this video. He’s a pro now- however, a couple still come out a bit wonky once in a while, but that’s what makes them special, right!?

Following a small business is kinda chic. Hope to see you following along our small business journey!

When did you learn to read and write it?

Who needs nightstands in the guest room when you have cases of paper? This is the first time we’ve ordered in bulk like this, it’s expensive up front but ends up saving us a couple thousand 💰. My sweet husband arranged all of this, and had them delivered to the wear-house at his work, loaded his car and drove them home (it took two trips) and carried each box inside. And yall, they are so heavy…I was zero help.

I’m still not sure where all of these cases are going to go, they are still in my foyer (along with a broken printer) and in the guest room…along with the rest of the random stuff we haven’t found a place for since we moved.

What’s even worse is actually printing on this paper and realizing it’s bent when it’s time to glue or even when packing orders!! This batch of defective paper was easy to find because it was the whole ream…😑

This super nice paper will now make packing slips or be the branding slips that go behind each notepad…oh well, at least it will be used for something.

I’m just giddy when I get to use my packing tape and see my logo wrapped around the box full of handmade gifts I’ve made. I think young me would be very proud and excited to know we have our own business!
