Sometimes life throws unexpected curveballs, and yesterday our family was handed one that has completely turned our world upside down.
My sweet, tiny, precious grandma, my daddy’s mom, has been placed on hospice care, and we’ve been told she only has a couple of days left. I know she is ready to see my daddy, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t jealous. I know he’ll be there to greet her when she crosses that beautiful river. ❤️
Because of this, my momma, my sister, and I are currently waiting to board our flight to Illinois to be with her and the rest of our family during this incredibly difficult time.
As much as I hate to do it, Nickel Pickles Sweet Treats will be closed this week. I will be working as quickly as I can to personally reach out to everyone with custom cake orders scheduled during this time. Please be patient with me as I navigate something no family is ever truly prepared for.
This is a gentle reminder that life is so very precious. Love your people hard, forgive quickly, hug a little longer, and never take a single moment for granted, because tomorrow is never promised.
We would greatly appreciate your prayers for safe travels and, most importantly, for God’s comfort, peace, and grace to surround our family in the days ahead.
Thank you all for your understanding, your kindness, and for always supporting not just our little bakery, but the family behind it. We love and appreciate each of you, and we’ll see you soon. ❤️
