My “Life” group ladies and I volunteered today with City Relief in Paterson serving the community. It was usually cold and rainy day and we were freezing, not properly dressed for the weather, but we did what we were tasked to do with a servant heart. I got to witness someone who just walked up to us for food and drink at first but left becoming a part of our God’s family. Praise God! What a blessing day to be in the company of these amazing people…
Thanks to my friend Julie who was invited to Hermés Event at American Dream mall, I got to be her plus one and had the most fun night ! We felt like we were strolling through streets of Paris, eating delicious food while listening to great music. What a fabulous event!
We had so much fun walking around Hudson, NY all day. We had lunch @ Feast & Floret, ice cream @ Culture Cream and more dessert @ The Maker Hotel. We went shopping, eating out way through Warren street, antiquing, catching up on life and making future plans to see each other more often. What an amazing day we had! I haven’t been feeling myself lately after all the health issues and still coping with post covid symptoms but I completely forgot about all of that, and felt great for the first time in a long time!
I have gotten to know this beautiful woman since last November. She is brave, bold and so comfortable in her own skin and she and I share the love of Korean junk food. She’s been battling cancer for sometime now, and she’s come to know Christ through this difficult and challenging journey. Today we celebrated her birthday with other moms from my town. The love this community showed her is overwhelming and I’m so thankful and privileged to be a part of this amazing group of woman. Happiest birthday MJ!
My friends dropped off dinners for my family this week. Thank you Mariah, Anna and Carissa for these delicious homemade meals and flowers!! I feel so loved…
Wife, Mother, jewelry designer & graphic designer /Creative Director, I am HaeWon Cadence Ryu. This is a glimpse into my life’s blessings, passion and inspiration.
This blog came to fruition after I began motherhood; I wanted to be able to capture every millestone of my two beautiful children - Chloe & Shane as they journey through their early years. Since the launch of my online jewelry site, cadencelee.com, I’ve come face-to-face with having to juggle multiple roles. As a result, I have decided to feature some of my designs and inspiration alongside postings of my precious family. For me, this is the perfect medium of work-life balance.
