Our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Open House at The Speech Shed was so much more than a celebration, it was a reminder of the incredible ๐’„๐’๐’Ž๐’Ž๐’–๐’๐’Š๐’•๐’š that has lifted this dream from the ground up.

My heart is overflowing with gratitude. To my family and friends who continue to show up, cheer me on, donate their time, and believe in this mission right alongside meโ€ฆthank you. Your support is the backbone of this little shed with a big purpose. ๐Ÿ’›

Thank you to the Kenedy Chamber of Commerce for such a meaningful ribbon cutting and for supporting small, local businesses like The Speech Shed.

A highlight of the night was seeing SO MANY of my grade school teachers from Kenedy ISD. Getting to talk, laugh, and catch up (for the first time in nearly 20 years for some) was incredibly special!! Thank you for shaping me then and still cheering me on now. ๐Ÿฅน

To the Kenedy High School student volunteers...you were absolute ๐‘ด๐‘ฝ๐‘ท๐’”! Thank you for helping serve, keeping therapy rooms tidy while the kiddos explored, and staying late to clean. ๐˜ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ด ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ฅ! (& I canโ€™t forget the Kenedy ISD school nurse, Sandy, for also stepping in to help!)

Special shoutouts to the amazing local/small businesses and creators who made the night so beautiful and delicious:

๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿป Santa for adding to the excitement
๐Ÿ“ธShaina Marie Photography for whipping out her camera and snapping some really sweet photos of such a special night

๐ŸŽˆ Julie Caldwell Thiele for the stunning balloon arch
๐ŸŒฟ And my friends, husband, & mom who helped decorate and get everything ready โ€” you are the true behind-the-scenes heroes

To every community member, client, and family who walked through our doors to celebrate with us โ€” ๐™๐™ƒ๐˜ผ๐™‰๐™† ๐™”๐™Š๐™! The Speech Shed is thriving because of ๐˜ ๐˜–๐˜œ, your trust, and your unwavering support.

12/10/2025

Before I share all the photos from our Open House & Ribbon Cutting, I need to love on my husband โ€” the unofficial Co-Exec of The Speech Shed.

He saw the vision before I did. The day we decided to purchase this building, he looked at it and already imagined what it could become. And from that moment on, he stayed positive through every single step of the renovation โ€” every late night, every โ€œwait, what if we changed the paint color again,โ€ every furniture shuffle, every piece of dรฉcor he hung (patiently), every printer emergency he absolutely did not sign up for.

Heโ€™s been this steady light in my life long before The Speech Shed was even a dream. All the way back in graduate schoolโ€ฆduring the stress, the self doubt, the long nights and early morningsโ€ฆ.he was the positive voice reminding me I could do this and that the hard work would lead somewhere beautiful.

When I was struggling deeply with PPA/PPD after our first baby, he was the one who urged me to try something newโ€ฆ something flexibleโ€ฆ something that would allow me to be more present for our family and still pour into my clients. He cheered me on when I took the leap from being a school based SLP into private practice almost three years ago. He helped name this dream, shape this dream, and after five failed attempts at finding the perfect location โ€” heโ€™s the one who found THIS one. In my hometown. Three minutes from his office. (Iโ€™m sure he regrets that part every time I call with a printer crisis.๐Ÿค—)

I love you. Thank you for believing in me, especially on the days I donโ€™t believe in myself. Thank you for being my light in grad school, for building this dream with me, and for pushing me to do the big and scary things.

The Speech Shed exists because you believed in me. โค๏ธ

Here are 5 simple things Iโ€™m doing to support my 8-month-oldโ€™s language (And honestly โ€” these work for newborns too. The earlier the better!) โฌ‡๏ธ

1๏ธโƒฃ Talking all day long
I basically narrate like Iโ€™m hosting a tiny cooking show. โ€œStir, stirโ€ฆ open fridgeโ€ฆ brrr!โ€ Natural + easy. ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ

2๏ธโƒฃ Following her lead
If sheโ€™s obsessed with the dog, the tag on her sock, or a random speck on the floorโ€ฆ thatโ€™s what we chat about. Her interests, not my agenda. ๐Ÿ˜‚

3๏ธโƒฃ Using sounds, songs, + face 2 face time
Lots of โ€œba-ba-ba,โ€ silly songs (sometimes completely made up), and exaggerated faces. If anyone saw me, theyโ€™d think Iโ€™m doing community theatre, but babies LOVE it. ๐ŸŽถ

4๏ธโƒฃ Reading daily
One page, five pages, or just chewing the corner โ€” it all counts. We cuddle up and call it storytime. A couple of my favorite books were written by SLPโ€™s themselves: Twin Cities Speech Therapy and Learn to Talk With Me ๐Ÿ“š

5๏ธโƒฃ Waiting on purpose
I pause before picking her up or giving the next bite. She usually gives me a look like, โ€œUmโ€ฆ hello??โ€ or makes a noise or gesture, but those little reactions are communication gold. โณ

โœจ Tiny efforts, big impact

As parents, we ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜บ anticipate our kidsโ€™ needs.
We know their favorite snacksโ€ฆ their preferred cupโ€ฆ the drink they always choose.

And without even realizing it, we often hand things over before they ever have to ask.

But when we pause that instinct, just a little, and create something like a snack board, we open the door for ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฎ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ต๐˜ด to happen naturally and playfully.

Snack boards arenโ€™t fancy or complicated. They are...Simple. Intentional. Effective.
