While I absolutely love the Market and all that it entails, the most important job I have is being a mom to the 4 most perfect daughters. When things are hectic with the stores, they’re both there to seamlessly step in and help with homework, chaureffing, loving and nurturing these beautiful babies. For that, I’m eternally grateful. I’m ever grateful for their never ending help and also for the fact that my daughters get to be a part of all of this. They love to be at the stores and ‘help’ and even create their own products in a line called 4 Peas in a Pod. When we dreamed up Driftwood Market, I had no idea the life’s lessons it would help us teach our girls. Honesty, integrity and resillience are what we strive to demonstrate every day. We want to show them that hard work pays off. Worthwhile dreams don’t always come easy, but with perseverance and grit, anything is possible.” Driftwood Market, opening early May, will be open 10am to 7pm Monday through Thursday, 10am to 8pm Friday, 9am to 5pm Saturday and noon to 4pm on Sunday.
