As this month of reflection and gratitude comes to a close, I just want to say: thank you.

Thank you for embracing Mama, I Will Send You a Purple Flower. For loving Cuddles. For sharing this book with your children, your clients, your classrooms, your friends.
Cuddles’ message was always simple: love deeply, and be grateful always.

And I feel both of those things in every comment, review, and story you’ve shared. 💐
This first year has been one of connection, healing, and community. I can’t wait to see where the next chapter leads.

I have so much to be grateful for, and it begins with you, dear ones – our Mindful in Practice global community. My deepest gratitude to everyone who has supported me on this journey.

And as we continue our 30-day gratitude practice, how is your practice? Perhaps you have begun your daily writing gratitude practice, or perhaps simply noticing each day one thing you have been grateful for. And if not, no worries – let’s be grateful for allowing ourselves to ponder the practice and the willingness to consider and try.

One year ago, this book was just being born. Since then, Mama, I Will Send You a Purple Flower has reached hearts across the world—helping readers of all ages cope with pet loss, practice mindfulness, and feel seen. 💜

Thanks to your support, we’ve also been able to give back: 100% of every sale has gone toward helping shelter dogs find their forever homes. That’s what Cuddles would’ve wanted. 🐶🏡

This book continues to be my love letter to her—and to all the animals who change our lives forever.

November is an invitation for us to practice 30-days of gratitude together…to write down daily three things you are grateful for, and if you choose, please email me and share. I will write back and be sharing as well.

Perhaps, most of all, as I bring a gentle mindful presence to how this past year has been, THIS November is a turning point…in not only how I feel in my heart space and soul, but also how I envision the year ahead, my meaning and purpose.

When I first wrote Mama, I Will Send You a Purple Flower, I didn’t knew many people would connect with it. I simply wrote it from the heart—with Cuddles beside me in spirit, guiding each word. Now, I’ve received the wonderful new that it’s won an honorable mention for Ella Way’s Children’s Book Award.🐾

This book is more than a story—it’s a meditation on love, loss, and what it means to truly be present.

As we approach the one-year anniversary on November 12th, I want to thank each of you who’ve read, gifted, shared, or hugged this book. You’ve kept Cuddles’ memory alive in the most meaningful ways.

💐 Available on Amazon + at Good On Paper Bookstore & Barnes & Noble River Oaks in Houston.
