Good morning

Want to hear from us only once a week? Click here to get the Sunday only send.

Hello and happy Monday, everyone! I (Jarred) can’t help but be extra thankful for today as I realised Ally and I have just passed our first year with the SDC. The two of us agreed the other day that the past 12 months have felt like 10 years! That said, we are very glad we found our way to this lovely family and hope that we’ll be with you for the foreseeable future. Gratitude aside, let’s get started with today’s newsletter! The first thing on our agenda: the riddle!
