Happy 6th birthday Cardens Gardens! 🎉

Over the years, YouTube has been so many things to me - a creative outlet, a place to document some incredible memories, a place to connect with new friends, spread smiles, earn money, and so much more.

I’m just so grateful for the opportunities that God has blessed me with on this journey. And I’m so thankful to every single person who humored me enough to follow along. 🥹❤️

🌱 A Message from the Heart - Please Read With an Open Mind


I don’t usually speak out about things like this. I tend to stay quiet - not because I don’t care, but because if I’m being real, I sometimes feel uneasy around how loud and divisive conversations online can be.


But this goes beyond politics for me. It’s about people. It's about community. It's about compassion and it's about loving others.


There are some institutions that are incredibly close to my heart - and vital to millions of others - that are at risk of losing federal funding. And I can’t do my inner child the disservice of staying quiet anymore. So I’m asking you to take a minute, slow down, and check in with your own inner child.


🍎 School Meals
Would your inner child want every kid at school to have something to eat - no questions asked?
Mine would.
Jesus would feed them too. No qualifications. No exceptions.
If you feel the same, take a moment to write to your representatives here:
👉 secure.everyaction.com/APSWS5iFC06axLdrs9movw2


🥫 Food Banks
Does the child in you really have it in their heart to take food away from hungry families?
Mine sure doesn’t.
We are cutting support for food banks - right now. That means less food for families, kids, seniors, and people who are doing their best in difficult situations. Please consider asking your representative to stop these cuts:
👉 act.feedingamerica.org/R4tm8-kFxUGsSdn3peEvIw2


📚 Libraries & Literacy
Remember that feeling of walking into the library as a kid? The magic of checking out a new book or discovering something that sparked your imagination? I lived for those 3D magic-eye books and animal drawing books.
If that feeling means something to you, stand up for libraries and lifelong learning (plus, my job depends on public libraries!):
👉 oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/.../edit...


🖼️ Museums & Wonder
Have you ever stood in front of a giant dinosaur skeleton or sat in a a planetarium and felt wonder? Maybe you remember your first trip to the science center, or a ancient Egypt exhibit on a school field trip?
Those moments are funded by programs like IMLS, and they’re at risk too:
👉 www.aam-us.org/.../03/17/urgent-act-now-to-save-im…


🌲 National Parks
Some of the most awe-inspiring places in this country are national parks. I haven’t even explored them all yet, but the ones I’ve visited have taken my breath away and literally made me cry bc they were so beautiful.
Help protect these spaces:
👉 act.npca.org/page/62134/action/1


And if there’s something close to your heart that’s not listed here, you can still make your voice heard here:
👉 www.congress.gov/members

🧡 Final Thought
This isn’t a political agenda. This is about dignity. About kindness. And about loving ALL of our neighbors - not just the self-sufficient ones we that find easy to love.


If you made it to the end of this message, thank you. I hope this landed in your heart, not just your feed

🐶 UPDATE on Wilson's America's Favorite Pet Journey ❤️

Out of thousands of good boys and girls, Wilson finished in the TOP 1% of all dogs! 🏆🐶 He placed 3rd in the quarterfinals, which means sadly this is the end of the competition for him, but I think we can all agree he's still a winner in our hearts! ❤️

This has been such a fun and unforgettable experience, and I've truly loved connecting with everybody so often throughout this journey. This competition even helped me reconnect with some of my closest friends, and, Wilson helped raise a lot of money for homeless animals! 🥺❤️

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to every single person who supported Wilson with a like, comment, share, vote, or donation. 🙏 I was completely blown away
by the amount of love, encouragement, and excitement from everyone around this contest.

I'm just so incredibly grateful that God has surrounded me with such amazing people.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us! Love you!! ❤️🐶
