Did you know November is National Entrepreneurship Month? I know there are a lot of things that are nationally recognized, but this has become very near and dear to my heart ever since Steven and I began this journey as entrepreneurs over four years ago.  I am SO passionate about Three Birdies and so blessed to co-own a business that I LOVE.  
 
When you buy from a small business, an actual person does a little happy dance.
I am incredibly thankful and grateful for all of the many amazing women who shop with us. Have you ever heard the saying "When you shop small, an actual person does a happy dance?" That is totally true and that actual person is usually me. 😂 Do you think Maurice's CEO does that?  LOL At Three Birdies Boutique we aim to be the Chick-fil-a of the boutique world, but really even more than that.   When you come in our shop, you become part of the family.  Our goal is for you to come into our shop and leave in a better mood than when you entered.
When I shop with a boutique, I support my community.  I help employ local families.  I donate to charities.  I share in someone's dream.  I am served and loved.  I feel beautiful.  Join me.  I pledge to shop small.  Boutique Hub
It never gets old chatting with new and long time customers, hearing about your day, getting to know you and hearing about your family, the list goes on and on and on.  I've shared many emotions with different ladies during their shopping experiences in our boutique.  I kind of feel like a hair stylist sometimes--I love being that person that you can just unload to.  Some women have gone through and continue to go through some very heavy stuff.  My heart breaks for some of the amazing women who shop with us when I hear what they are going through.  I cry with them, hug them, and definitely pray for them.  ---> Do you think the owner of any big box store does any of that for it's customers??  This is one of the many things that sets us apart.
Walking into a small business is like that warm feeling you get in a small country town where everyone smiles and says hello.  Whereas a corporate store, the people look at you as another dollar sign.
From helping a new momma find clothes she feels good in to helping someone find just the right outfit for her mother's funeral and everything in between, it is my honor to help you.  I am beyond thankful that you choose to shop with our family.  
Switching gears a bit.  I am so thankful for the guy who stands by my side, believes in my crazy dreams, believes in me, and makes all of the behind the scenes side of our business function and run smoothly.  He is the calm to my crazy--we really make a great business team. 
And wow, God's hand has been on our business every step of the way.  It is so amazing to see when we have trusted Him and let Him lead us, what the outcome is.  I am beyond blessed to run a business alongside my husband, and help so many women day in and day out with their fashion needs.  But it's really more than that--I help them find confidence and happiness and that is far more important than the cute new top they purchase.  
Phew, that was a little more wordy than I had planned, but it feels good to share with the world.  If you took the time to read this, I'd love for you to comment below.  Thanks for reading!
XOXO,
Stacy
