Holzkern

I know I am constantly talking about the crazy pace of life now that I am a mother, in addition to being a wife, dental hygienist, daughter, sister, etc. Just today I found myself hurrying home from a doctor's appointment, waking Logan a bit early from his nap for his swim lesson, rushing back home to clean him up and change him, turning immediately back around to meet a friend, and then rushing back home again in time for him to nap. So much racing around! Time is precious, and how I manage it is important. And although I know we live in a city where life is inevitably rushed quite often, I would love more than anything to teach Logan to be more in touch with himself and with nature. 

This is one of the reasons that I fell in love with Holzkern watches. Their watches are made from all-natural varieties of wood and stone, with the intent to remind us to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with nature. I am very often in need of that reminder! My Holzkern watch helps keep me on schedule (which in turn keeps my family on schedule) and reminds me to make the most out of my time. Holzkern also donates €1 for every watch sold to reforestation projects in Nicaragua (you all know how dear Latin America is to my heart) as well as to the employment of people with disabilities. Contributing to important causes while investing in a beautiful piece of nature is a win-win in my book. Scope out their selection of unique timepieces here.
