For a new beginning

Every beginning holds a little hope and a little courage. 

A first home, a first day, a first breath. Some beginnings are the ones people plan for: a baby on the way, a marriage, a new job, a graduation. Others arrive more quietly, like a new chapter after an ending or a step into a self that was a long time coming.

A gift at a beginning isn't a celebration of arrival. It is a small blessing for the road, a way of saying I see what it took to get here, and I am walking with you into what comes next.

These are gifts for every kind of beginning, the ones people gather around and also the ones only a few know about; a way of standing beside someone at the start of something new.
