Almost a year ago, I came off of maternity leave to a job that was drastically different from the position I loved before having Phil; it was instantly obvious because of the crazy levels of stress the job had absorbed in the few months I was out that I couldn’t stay, and I needed something else to pay the bills immediately. (Obviously, getting a job writing short sentences was totally out of the question.)

I sent emails around to ex coworkers, bosses and contacts in the apparel industry and three days later, was a full-time freelance graphic designer. This was in part thanks to Remy Holwick, who understood and supported my work-at-home-to-take-care-of-Phil dream. She was one of the godsends that gave me more than enough design work to keep me busy and pay my bills literally the second I asked for help.

It’s time to repay that folks – it’s time to support Remy’s dream. Please pay a visit to Remy’s kickstarter page and pledge what you can. If this monk dress isn’t made a reality, I will cry.
