I know it has been ages. I have been so busy over the last few weeks, and I have found that this little blog has become less and less of a need for my family. Honestly, I find myself wanting to share very little about my team these days. A good friend of mine said, "if someone isn't willing to ask you personally how your family is doing why do you care to update them online, they obviously don't truly care about you." Although I know that this is true of some people I must say that I know that a lot of our Williams Syndrome family as well as friends who have fallen through the cracks like to check up and see how we are doing.... AND I LOVE THAT.
....here is comes... but..... (and here is the great news.) I have started a new business. I thought I would be doing this very... very part time. I was helping a few friends fill some positions and needed to make things more official with an LLC. So I started Solana Recruitment Services.
My business has ramped up so dramatically over the last month that I have found myself working full time again. It has been a very long time since I was so passionate about the work that I have been doing. I am truly happy, overjoyed really... and I must say my boss is AWESOME. It's amazing when you realize that the hard work that you are doing is benefiting your family and not the pocket book of someone else. My focus is on family first and business second right now, so with that, I feel a need to say a very fond farewell to The Pickled Bean. 5 years of pictures and moments shared with the world has come to an end. I'll keep the website up for another week and then I will be turning it off.
Going forward please feel free to follow me on
Thank you all so much for being part of this chapter of our lives. This has been a very hard decision for me, but when it comes down to it I just don't have anytime to devote to the site any more. I hope you all wish me luck in this next chapter.
Onward and upward!
xoxo
Ashley

Hi Ash, I have loved checking in on your cute family anonymously and from afar. I will miss your blog, but best of luck in your future endeavors!!
Ashley, I just wanted to say thank you for the time you have spent on the Pickled Bean. Your blog was one of the ones to inspire me into writing. The feature you did that included Evan's story meant the world to me. Hopefully one day Cooper and Evan will meet in person and realize their twin-dom. :) xoxo
I will miss your blog, but it gives me such joy that you have your priorities so clearly established. I love you and all the D Team.
