Ashley Cook Instagram - it’s out! you put your heart into this. you’ve grown and shifted and through it all you’ve remained true to yourself. proud of the music you created, but mostly proud of who you’ve become along the way. cheering you on always— but cheering a little louder today.
Ashley Cook Instagram - my people.
Ashley Cook Instagram - thirty feels significant. for a long list of reasons, this place feels important. but what feels most significant are the people who surround me. i walk forward with more strength because of the people who’ve stood and who stand. last night left me challenged, encouraged, and every kind of grateful. there are none better than these.
Ashley Cook Instagram - these are my people. they are my reason to celebrate and they are my reason to say thank you. they are my steady and they are my strength. there is no one i’m more proud of and there is no one i’m more grateful for. these five carry the good of an army. these five are for life.

Ashley Cook Instagram - one week away and i am more certain than ever that time away with people you love is as good as it gets. italy, you are your very own wonder. you reminded me to slow down, to savor, to hold people close. your sunsets and your history and your people left me wide eyed. beauty at every turn. these are days i won’t forget. few words, full heart. grateful. grateful. grateful.

Ashley Cook Instagram - italy, you are something special.
Ashley Cook Instagram - already missing the other fifteen.
Ashley Cook Instagram - the last year has been covered up with challenge and change. almost everything has been rearranged somehow. but, when i look back i see a year full of unhurried time around tables with a few good people, honest conversations. more books, more walks, more sleep. more more listening, more learning, more time outside— less becoming much, much more. this year was hard in many ways— but mostly it was good. filled me to full time and time again. left me with simple moments that i will treasure for a lifetime. reminded me to trust— one day at a time, trust. i won’t forget this one. walking forward hopeful and ready.
Ashley Cook Instagram - kristen, to journey with you has been to see grace all around. to watch you choose trust as sturdy hands reshaped your days has been it’s own good. to stand with you here was the truest of all honors. your day was absolutely beautiful. will, you’re the one. and i can’t wait to cheer you both forward. with you, always.

Ashley Cook Instagram - nothing leaves me more certain that i’ve got it good than a few days away with my people.
Ashley Cook Instagram - you are the sum of the people around you and last night you were surrounded by the very best. this says so much about you, court. you are loved by many, cheered for by many, believed in by many. i am one of the many who can't wait to see the good that you bring out this year. here's to 25!
Ashley Cook Instagram - you were 26 in this picture. now you're 27. // you had me laughing day one and it hasn't stopped since. you change a room when you walk in. we might be complete opposites, but i couldn't possibly love you more. here's to you!!
Ashley Cook Instagram - a heart bigger than your body and a smile that never leaves your face- raquelle, you make everything brighter. you are a friend to all and everyone is better for it. you deserve all of the celebration. here's to you and all that this year will hold!

Ashley Cook Instagram - visioned.
Ashley Cook Instagram - another year. all of them count, but this one holds a little more weight in my heart. it was a year of quiet prayers being answered. so many of them. i will never get over the way goodness continued to come. it reminded my sometimes weary but determined to remain hopeful heart that hope is always worth it. always, always worth it. this was a year of growth and change and running in the lane that is mine. accepting all that this lane is and all that this lane is not. this was a year where the longest friendships became better and more. and new friendships showed up, surprised me, and made all the difference— i’m still not over it. the little things were the big things, as they always are. the best things were saturday morning walks with a friend, more cups of tea together than could be counted, and simple texts that came right on time. letters in the mail and phone calls from family— any of them. laughing and reading and looking out to see the trees blooming again. a boat ride at sunset. dinner around someone’s table. watching snow fall gently, beautifully just outside the window. listening to two friends say i do— honest and heartfelt. welcoming brand new babies and watching others blow out their own candles. 

if next year is more of the same i will be more than happy. full and grateful and so very aware that i’ve been given much. grace, grace. so much grace.
Ashley Cook Instagram - this is what dreams are made of.

Ashley Cook Instagram - i have no idea where a year went, but one year ago today you came in and life has been better ever since. your permanent smile can make even the worst day good. and your laugh is as good as it gets. you are a lover of people, a steady observer, and an adventurer. you give joy in big doses and you are easy come, easy go. these things are going to take you far, bub. and i can't wait to cheer you on every step of the way! here's to your biggest days, your best day, and every day in between. gates, this aunt loves you big!!
Ashley Cook Instagram - when you find people who leave you wanting more of what counts, keep them. when you find people whose hearts leave you challenged, keep them. when you find people who leave you with more jesus and less of this world, keep them. there is only keeping with these two.
Ashley Cook Instagram - to the one who forever has me laughing and never lets the party stop- tonight is all about you, caroline. and wouldn't want it any other way. here's to a great year!

Ashley Cook Instagram - the last year pushed and pulled- and i’m grateful for every bit of it. those days left me more certain of what counts, overwhelmingly grateful for my people, and more determined in my direction. the last year could only be called good. for what has been, thank you. for what will be, i’m ready.
Ashley Cook Instagram - of all the birthdays, this has been the most peaceful. everything has slowed to the pace of important and necessary. what’s left is simple. it’s people together— really together. it’s quiet attention. it’s one moment at a time. and maybe that’s the greatest gift of all. to slow to be grateful on a day when everything has been stripped down to rest and trust. might this day mark all my days to come. more of less. people and love and a heart that knows it all to be a gift. every last messy mundane miracle of a moment— a gift.

Ashley Cook Instagram - this guy.
Ashley Cook Instagram - two moms and one dad.
Ashley Cook Instagram - november is a month that gently pulls us back to thank you. it asks us to remember all that has been good and still is. this year i’m increasingly grateful for the goodness that has nothing to do with me. the goodness that simply shows up again and again, regardless of my deserving. this right here is a good place to start. for friends and laughter and sunsets that keep coming— thank you.
Ashley Cook Instagram - i’m learning that my productivity in this season looks like a lot of quiet. two days of sitting still here left me with lessons to carry for all the years. slower is leaving me with more.
Ashley Cook Instagram - when two of the greatest come together- you dance, a lot. #itszaun
Ashley Cook Instagram - your little hand always has mine, bub.
Ashley Cook Instagram - if goodness is time with good people and noticing the beauty all around. if it is unhurried days and rest. if it is making new friends and meeting up with old friends. if it is long walks around a city or slow meals or making time for the simplest of things that you enjoy— this last week was covered in it. i am full and grateful and so very aware that i have a thousand little reasons to say thank you, again.
Ashley Cook Instagram -
Ashley Cook Instagram - these will always be the richest moments. quiet with creation roaring. focused on right here, right now. we live in a world that begs us to keep up the pace, but i never been more convinced that the gold waits within the slow.

Ashley Cook Instagram - december in new york is magic. all the trees and all the lights and mostly all the people who call the city home who are strong and determined, but mostly kind and warm and helpful. it’s something. walking new streets makes me feel alive. familiar faces in little cafes feels sweet. and unhurried time with people that matter most might just be everything. i won’t forget these days with these people in this place.
Ashley Cook Instagram - sometimes you pray for good and get great. that is absolutely the case with you, ash. celebrating you is necessary- so here's to you!
Ashley Cook Instagram - one thing that i know for sure: slowing down with people you really, really love is magic. as good as it gets. a few days away was enough to leave me full and reminded— i have many, many reasons to say thank you.
Ashley Cook Instagram - special and significant. these are the best words i can attach to the last few days. seeing all over again the way good things have been tightly weaved together. challenged and encouraged by the faithful giants who continue to show up and lead well. the give of many left me better. saying thank you over and over again today.
Ashley Cook Instagram - i'm fully convinced there is none better. best place, best people.
Ashley Cook Instagram - one more for the one who always held mom in her heart. you still light up the same way. couldn’t be more grateful for you.
Ashley Cook Instagram - you being as tall as me was never a part of the plan. time slow down.
Ashley Cook Instagram - i haven't moved past these words since i heard them. this is it.
Ashley Cook Instagram - beauty is for soaking and savoring.  it is for remembering— there is still goodness bursting through all around. 🤍
Ashley Cook Instagram - the heart of @darling is one that beats for people and their unique potential. they lead a continued conversation on the things that matter most, always leading people forward. to join in on this conversation was an absolute honor. to write on influence felt right. something so near to my heart is this truth: you are impossibly important. and what you give matters. to one or to many— it all adds up. 💛
Ashley Cook Instagram - some days your best efforts don't seem to add up. trust looks a lot like choosing to see what isn't seen. choosing to see what's shifting inside of you even when outside circumstances feel the same. choosing to believe the narrow road to be leading you toward more and always more. trust looks like choosing the author over todays short story. today looks like trust. every single day needs to look a little more like trust.
Ashley Cook Instagram - you will never not be my favorite.
Ashley Cook Instagram - one will always be a big enough number. one will always be worth it.
Ashley Cook Instagram - everything about this week left me full.
Ashley Cook Instagram - this picture of my mom is one of strength, courage, and bravery. supporting her husband as he fought heroically. // today i honor the strong men and women who give their all for our freedom. and i also honor the spouses, family members, and friends who sacrifice by giving their loved ones to the front lines. it is brave, selfless, and makes all the difference.
Ashley Cook Instagram - might i never miss this kind of magic.
Ashley Cook Instagram - few things are better than watching your brother become a dad.
Ashley Cook Instagram - there is always change. always, always change. and while some of it is hard and painful and some it feels like a stretching that might just pull something deep down right in two— some of it is absolutely beautiful. this right here reminds me. i don’t want to miss a single bit of it.
Ashley Cook Instagram - these days are fast and i know it. so i try memorize her sweet little voice as she tells me what she mostly wants for her birthday is “anything girly”. i happily spend a saturday afternoon cheering for one football game and then another. i pay attention to the gift of celebrating a milestone birthday with my dad and then my sister. i send a few more birthday messages and put a few packages in the mail because many of my closest have birthdays this month. i listen to someone share what five decades of friendship with my dad has been like— steady, unshaken, generous, kind at every turn. dependable. a precious conversation. and a challenge. i want to follow those footsteps. i want to be that kind of friend for that long. i share morning coffee with friends in my kitchen and remember this is the good stuff. i watch the trees become all the gorgeous warm colors again. magic. absolute magic. october has been good. i hope i never miss any of this.
Ashley Cook Instagram - once again, leaving this city filled to full. a weekend with a long list of your favorite people in one place— magic. spring in new york, also magic.
Ashley Cook Instagram - if ever there was a card i wanted to create, it is this one. if ever there were words that i hope to be said and meant over and over and over again— these words.
Ashley Cook Instagram - my whole heart in a project. if ever there was something that i cared about entirely, it is this. good words being given and shared. might we slow down and leave each other seen and celebrated, loved and cared for—one card at a time. slow and thoughtful and personal. generous. meaningful. as important as it has ever been. i’m not sure that we will turn around and wish we worked longer hours or built bigger and bigger things to become a little more impressive, but i do think we will wish we took the time to tell someone just how much we believe in them or just how much we care. 

so, bowe. heartfelt words for everyday moments. might these cards be a space for you to share your good words with those who mean most to you. 

because we need each other. because ordinary love given well might just change everything. i believe it will. 

international women’s day feels like the exact right time to share this collaboration with darling. in honor of the beauty, depth, and gentle care that women carry. in celebration of ways we are able to encourage and empower one another.

Ashley Cook Instagram - at the beginning of another year i am most grateful for the little things— like this. flowers that show up because a friend refuses to let you celebrate anything alone. also quick checkins and cards in the mail and people who say sure, come stay. what a thing to get to walk these days, all of them, together. here’s to another one. more celebrating, more sharing. more of all of it, together.
Ashley Cook Instagram - when the days feels heavy somehow, i come back to this. when friends are welcoming a brand new baby, i come back to this. when a precious friend hears the word cancer again. when there is loss too great for words. when i need to stop going and doing and my soul needs some quiet, i come back to this. when there is anything good at all worth celebrating, i come back to this. baking and sharing. making anything at all that can be left on a doorstep. it feels small and simple and healing somehow. to slow down all the way. to use my hands. to bring a little something to someone that matters to me. to come close to the goodness and the grief and the mystery of it all— together. always, always together.
Ashley Cook Instagram - today, this little book goes out into the world. a book on the power of joy and hope and peace and gratitude— the things that lift us up in the midst of everyday life. i simply do not know two people who live this message out better or more than raquelle and tanya. you are both bright and kind and absolute joy through it all. i’ve watched you both choose joy when life was anything but easy. i’ve watched you choose kindness toward people again and again and again. it’s just who you are. purely tender and generous toward others, always. i’ve seen you dig deep and pull up gratitude when there was still pain or brokenness or mess right there, pressing down. you are determined to hold onto the light— to share it. 

cheering you on so happily as you show up just as you are and share what you have always been— bright and bold and always adding bits of beauty in the ways that kindness and generosity and true encouragement always does. 

thank you for taking the time to remind us just how much joy matters. thank you for bringing hope and joy with you everywhere you go. it’s a choice— and we are all better for it. friendship with each of you has been a gift and a treasure. a bright spot for sure.
Ashley Cook Instagram - if anything at all feels important to me it is something like this— a small piece of homemade bread shared in a simple piece of foil. small and simple, but not really small or simple. these are the big things. more of this, more of this.
Ashley Cook Instagram - i hope you all vote, if you haven’t already. and then i hope we can find it in us to love deeply. to pull people close and choose something better and lighter than pointing out our differences. love is gentler— and mostly love is greater.
Ashley Cook Instagram - when you have it good, don’t miss it. time in this city with a handful of people that matter most to me— it has been good. and that’s the beauty that continues to come. long conversations and meals together and walks through the park. good music and quiet mornings. winter has a way of reminding us that plenty of things are temporary. there is loss here. there is more let go than we often want. but, there is also friendship and laughter and love that lasts. right here, i’m grateful for every little good thing that hasn’t been so little in my heart lately.
Ashley Cook Instagram - summer is sweetness. days of abundance and joy and little more freedom. a season meant to be marked by a lighter heart and a little more sun. that is what these days have been. right on time joy. right on time goodness. these days haven’t been slow. they haven’t been for travel or adventure or time to lay everything down which is so much of what i usually make space for here. but, that has been right. days to continue. days to give to good things and receive good things. days to enjoy what is already right here at home. fresh peaches and good books and back to school shopping with my nephews. snow cones and long walks at sunset. birthday celebrations and baseball games. many quiet mornings on my own couch. i wouldn’t trade any of it. full it the best of ways. counting every single gift just before the leaves begin turning, again.
Ashley Cook - 35K Likes - it’s out! you put your heart into this. you’ve grown and shifted and through it all you’ve remained true to yourself. proud of the music you created, but mostly proud of who you’ve become along the way. cheering you on always— but cheering a little louder today.

Ashley Cook - 4.6K Likes - another year. all of them count, but this one holds a little more weight in my heart. it was a year of quiet prayers being answered. so many of them. i will never get over the way goodness continued to come. it reminded my sometimes weary but determined to remain hopeful heart that hope is always worth it. always, always worth it. this was a year of growth and change and running in the lane that is mine. accepting all that this lane is and all that this lane is not. this was a year where the longest friendships became better and more. and new friendships showed up, surprised me, and made all the difference— i’m still not over it. the little things were the big things, as they always are. the best things were saturday morning walks with a friend, more cups of tea together than could be counted, and simple texts that came right on time. letters in the mail and phone calls from family— any of them. laughing and reading and looking out to see the trees blooming again. a boat ride at sunset. dinner around someone’s table. watching snow fall gently, beautifully just outside the window. listening to two friends say i do— honest and heartfelt. welcoming brand new babies and watching others blow out their own candles. 

if next year is more of the same i will be more than happy. full and grateful and so very aware that i’ve been given much. grace, grace. so much grace.

Ashley Cook - 1K Likes - my whole heart in a project. if ever there was something that i cared about entirely, it is this. good words being given and shared. might we slow down and leave each other seen and celebrated, loved and cared for—one card at a time. slow and thoughtful and personal. generous. meaningful. as important as it has ever been. i’m not sure that we will turn around and wish we worked longer hours or built bigger and bigger things to become a little more impressive, but i do think we will wish we took the time to tell someone just how much we believe in them or just how much we care. 

so, bowe. heartfelt words for everyday moments. might these cards be a space for you to share your good words with those who mean most to you. 

because we need each other. because ordinary love given well might just change everything. i believe it will. 

international women’s day feels like the exact right time to share this collaboration with darling. in honor of the beauty, depth, and gentle care that women carry. in celebration of ways we are able to encourage and empower one another.

Ashley Cook - 1K Likes - at the beginning of another year i am most grateful for the little things— like this. flowers that show up because a friend refuses to let you celebrate anything alone. also quick checkins and cards in the mail and people who say sure, come stay. what a thing to get to walk these days, all of them, together. here’s to another one. more celebrating, more sharing. more of all of it, together.

Ashley Cook - 1K Likes - when the days feels heavy somehow, i come back to this. when friends are welcoming a brand new baby, i come back to this. when a precious friend hears the word cancer again. when there is loss too great for words. when i need to stop going and doing and my soul needs some quiet, i come back to this. when there is anything good at all worth celebrating, i come back to this. baking and sharing. making anything at all that can be left on a doorstep. it feels small and simple and healing somehow. to slow down all the way. to use my hands. to bring a little something to someone that matters to me. to come close to the goodness and the grief and the mystery of it all— together. always, always together.

Ashley Cook - 1K Likes - today, this little book goes out into the world. a book on the power of joy and hope and peace and gratitude— the things that lift us up in the midst of everyday life. i simply do not know two people who live this message out better or more than raquelle and tanya. you are both bright and kind and absolute joy through it all. i’ve watched you both choose joy when life was anything but easy. i’ve watched you choose kindness toward people again and again and again. it’s just who you are. purely tender and generous toward others, always. i’ve seen you dig deep and pull up gratitude when there was still pain or brokenness or mess right there, pressing down. you are determined to hold onto the light— to share it. 

cheering you on so happily as you show up just as you are and share what you have always been— bright and bold and always adding bits of beauty in the ways that kindness and generosity and true encouragement always does. 

thank you for taking the time to remind us just how much joy matters. thank you for bringing hope and joy with you everywhere you go. it’s a choice— and we are all better for it. friendship with each of you has been a gift and a treasure. a bright spot for sure.

Ashley Cook - 1K Likes - if anything at all feels important to me it is something like this— a small piece of homemade bread shared in a simple piece of foil. small and simple, but not really small or simple. these are the big things. more of this, more of this.

Ashley Cook - 0.9K Likes - i hope you all vote, if you haven’t already. and then i hope we can find it in us to love deeply. to pull people close and choose something better and lighter than pointing out our differences. love is gentler— and mostly love is greater.

Ashley Cook - 0.9K Likes - when you have it good, don’t miss it. time in this city with a handful of people that matter most to me— it has been good. and that’s the beauty that continues to come. long conversations and meals together and walks through the park. good music and quiet mornings. winter has a way of reminding us that plenty of things are temporary. there is loss here. there is more let go than we often want. but, there is also friendship and laughter and love that lasts. right here, i’m grateful for every little good thing that hasn’t been so little in my heart lately.

Ashley Cook - 890 Likes - summer is sweetness. days of abundance and joy and little more freedom. a season meant to be marked by a lighter heart and a little more sun. that is what these days have been. right on time joy. right on time goodness. these days haven’t been slow. they haven’t been for travel or adventure or time to lay everything down which is so much of what i usually make space for here. but, that has been right. days to continue. days to give to good things and receive good things. days to enjoy what is already right here at home. fresh peaches and good books and back to school shopping with my nephews. snow cones and long walks at sunset. birthday celebrations and baseball games. many quiet mornings on my own couch. i wouldn’t trade any of it. full it the best of ways. counting every single gift just before the leaves begin turning, again.
