Shelby & Courtney’s Story: A Bond Woven Through Life
Shelby and Courtney are more than mother and daughter. They’re best friends, travel companions, and each other’s biggest supporters. Their bond is built on countless little traditions and shared moments that, together, tell a story of love and lasting connection. Since Courtney’s teenage years, many evenings have been spent side by side on the couch, watching Little House on the Prairie, shows that reflected the values of family, simplicity, and togetherness they hold dear.
Laughter has always been part of their bond. Shelby has given Courtney more nicknames than she can count. Some so funny, and embarrassing, that only the two of them could ever understand. They’ve built an entire language of inside jokes that makes even the smallest glance between them spark joy.
And then there were the sentimental moments. For Shelby, Courtney’s wedding day, and the births of her grandchildren, are forever etched into her heart. For Courtney, introducing her children to her mom remains one of the most meaningful moments of her life. Now, as Courtney steps into motherhood herself, Shelby finds herself reliving her own joys as a mother, watching her daughter discover the beauty, challenges, and deep love that come with raising a family.
Traditions, too, have played their part bring them even closer. When Courtney was young, Saturdays often began with “Girls’ Breakfast” just Shelby and Courtney at the table, carving out time for themselves in a house otherwise full of boys. That tradition of making space for each other has carried on in new ways: traveling together, road-tripping across the States, exploring Europe, and sharing the adventure of life as true travel buddies.
In a family full of men, Shelby and Courtney have always been “the girls,” sticking together, representing each other, and carving out their own space. That bond has grown stronger through the years, an invisible thread that ties their lives together no matter where they go.
At Pogn, we believe this invisible, undeniable warmth between mothers and daughters is something worth celebrating. It’s the same warmth we seek to weave into every cashmere sweater. A reminder that love, comfort, and care can be felt not just in memories, but in something you wrap around yourself every day and the moments that matters the most to you.
Shelby and Courtney’s story is one of many, but it reflects the heart of what Pogn stands for: the enduring warmth of family, and the joy of carrying it with you, stitch by stitch, moment by moment.
