Hi! I'm Karina.

I'm a mama + a child of God.

This brand unites these pieces of me + allows me the opportunity to share them with you.

T H I S   I S   O U R   S T O R Y.

In April 2019, my husband and I welcomed the most beautiful little boy into the world. Quickly, my three-month maternity leave transformed into stay-at-home mom, at least until our son turned one... or so we thought. God had other plans. In late November, we received the incredible news that we were expecting... again! We were never planning on it being so soon, but God had other plans. Better plans. And we immediately became overjoyed.

In February, during a routine ultrasound, we received some scary news. This led to an immediate surgery and bedrest for the duration of my pregnancy. This event truly made an impact on my faith, re-igniting and strengthening my relationship with God. I was truly putting my daughter in his hands, and daily (if not hourly) praying. I was praying for Him to give me peace, to protect my daughter, to give me strength. I was also thanking Him for my son's health, for my family's support, for my husband's continuous love and drive.  

So sitting on the couch one evening with my feet up, watching Netflix, and 17 weeks pregnant, the idea of withloveforG popped into my head and my heart. I wanted to create something for my children. Something that gave me purpose and definition. Something that allowed me to be creative. Something I could use as a gateway to show His love. And that same night I started. 

Now, as a mom of two, not only have my blessings been doubled, but so has my inspiration and motivation. I will continue to grow this brand as a way for me to show the love I have for my children and my God. 

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Blessings + Love,
