Happy St. Patrick's Day!
You know, St. Patrick's Day is so different for me as an adult than it was when I was a child! Growing up in an Italian/Scottish/everything BUT Irish household, I never really gave St. Patrick's Day a second thought. In fact, I think I was the only kid on the block who never wore green to school!
As the mama of two Irish children, St. Patrick's Day has taken on a whole new meaning! The kids just so happened to get their report cards today, and thank God, the holiday was not sabatoged by bad grades! Maddy got straight A's (don't ask how that child does it - she certainly didn't get her smarts from me)! Nick did very well as well with a B average in all of his classes.
Anyway, we told the kids we'd do whatever they want to celebrate their fabulous report cards - we were thinking Friendly's for their favorite meals and ice cream. As if! Instead, they requested corned beef and cabbage (something I clearly cannot make) so we called the local diner for takeout! I'm so glad the day ended on a high note - it certainly didn't begin that way! Nick cried all morning that it wasn't fair he had to attend school on St. Patrick's Day. In fact, the little bugger actually tricked me and told me they had off today for the holiday! I didn't *remember* seeing that on the calendar, but they do attend Catholic School in a predominantly Irish parish, so I honestly thought he was telling the truth and I somehow overlooked this on the school calendar! Needless to say I wasn't pleased when I checked the calendar and realized he not only had school, but report cards today as well...
At Maddy Rose Boutique we have been CRAZY busy!!! I'm so thrilled with the success of our little business, and I am so grateful to all of you for supporting me on this journey! I have spent the last few months going through a wide range of emotions - I've shed lots of tears, bruised my knees from praying, and recently, have enjoyed the benefits of my hard work.
One such benefit is an article that will be published tomorrow in the Bucks County Courier Times! I'm so excited to introduce my business to the Philadelphia suburbs, and Maddy and Nick are absolutely thrilled their pictures will be in the local newspaper (Nick asked if it would make him rich...that boy is a pistol)!
So, I have to tell you about the FABULOUS new lines we are offering! As you can see on our home page, we are offering 25% off our entire KidKraft collection! This line is so fun! I've wanted to offer KidKraft products for some time now, and I'm so glad we can finally offer this fabulous line to our friends! KidKraft is well known for their awesome toys and toddler beds and cots. The savings from our 25% off sale are absolutely huge - be sure to check it out today!
This week we also added an incredibly fun lines of t-shirts to our boutique. This super line is designed by Luna B. Tees. These personalized tees are available in a HUGE variety of styles. I can tell you first hand how fabulous the product quality is as I just received a t-shirt I requested for my nephew, Spencer's, first birthday. We got the Boys Personalized Tee and the quality is just wonderful. The shirt is super soft and the personalization is great (no iron-on decals here)! For the price of these personalized tees, the quality can't be beat. Talk about the perfect gift!
We will be incredibly busy over the next few weeks adding more upscale products to our chic little boutique! Visit our blog often to see what's new - you never know when a special promotion will pop up just for you!
