Welcome to our perch
perch= a resting place
"Blessed Nest nurtures Mothers so they can nurture their babies with peace of mind."
The products. The people
Donna and I have been friends for so many years; I can hardly remember not knowing her. I would be a very different woman without her strength, inspiration and friendship. There is something really special about the women in your life who go through seasons with you... I made her wedding dress in a hotel room in Detroit (that's a funny story for another time!) and she served food at my wedding. We have faced many of life's challenges together with friendship and faith, which have served us very well so far.
