Memories over “someday.” 🏰✨

People say “must be nice.” But what they don’t see are the late nights planning, the skipped extras, and the tired little feet that kept moving because magic was waiting. 

It’s not effortless—it’s love, it’s intention, it’s choosing memories now instead of ‘someday.’ And when my kids look back, they won’t remember the cost… they’ll remember that their childhood was our greatest adventure. ✈️
