  "Military life can be a series of preparing for a move, moving, adjusting to a new place, and then just as things feel a little settled, it starts all over again. When I received my box, I had just moved - in fact, I had to make sure the shipping address was correct! It absolutely made my day (week...month...) to get mail at my new place. It helped make it feel like home! The contents were the bonus: the passion planner, the coffee (yummy!), coffee mug, gift card, and other add ins felt like a warm hug from a new friend saying “hi, welcome, I am so excited to get to know you.”
  Gretchen G., military spouse
  
  "The day I received your box had been a draining day at work. When I pulled into my driveway and saw my box on the porch, I instantly smiled. When I opened my box I was so inspired by your awesome gifts. Each gift is uplifting and truly comes from the heart. Thank you for sending me a wonderful gift that turned my day around. "
