Dear Wonderful Customer and Friend,

After 45 years wonderful years in the children’s clothing business and 39 exciting years spearheading Janet Hunter Hawkins Inc DBA The Children’s Clotheshorse, I am writing to share some personal news- John and I will be retiring, and with that, our company will be closing. This decision was not made lightly, as our business and our customer relationships have been an integral part of our lives.

We want to sincerely thank you for the support, partnership, and trust you have extended to us over the years. Serving you has been both an honor and a joy. Your trust in us, our products, and in our small business has meant more than words can express. Because of you, we were able to grow, adapt, and continue doing what we love for nearly four decades. It has truly been a pleasure working with you.

As we move into retirement, we will carry fond memories of the relationships built and the families we’ve had the privilege of serving. We carry with us deep gratitude, and please know how much we have valued your professionalism and support. WE hope our friendship will last forever.

We are working diligently to make this transition as smooth as possible for you, for our vendors, and for Debbie and Jenny. We will send out an announcement when all is settled announcing the new homes for our collections and team that became like family.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you once again for being such an important part of this incredible journey. We wish you continued success in the years ahead. We look forward to staying in touch, and we hope our paths continue to cross in the future.

Warm wishes always,
Janet and John Hawkins
