Welcome to the May edition of Stroll Phillips Creek Ranch, your magazine created by and for the incredible residents who make this community feel like home. 
 
This month brings one of my favorite celebrations: Mother's Day. Across more than 100 countries, this day is set aside to recognize the women who shape our lives with wisdom and care. Whether expressing well-earned admiration for the mothers who raised us, celebrating your own journey through motherhood or showing appreciation for the nurturing figures in our lives, it’s a moment to reflect on love, strength and gratitude. It’s no surprise this day sparks more phone calls than any other — millions of voices reaching out to say “thank you, Mom” and “I love you.” 
 
May also invites us to pause and remember those who have served our country, especially on Memorial Day. Originally established in the aftermath of the Civil War, this day was set aside as a time to honor those who gave their lives in service. Chosen to coincide with the season of blooming flowers, it’s a reminder that even in loss, there is beauty, renewal and a legacy that lives on.  
 
Inside this issue, you’ll find heartwarming stories from neighbors, snapshots of recent gatherings and more. And, of course, we extend our deepest gratitude to the local businesses that support Stroll Phillips Creek Ranch— their partnership keeps our publication thriving, and we encourage you to support them in return. 
 
Much like the gardens in full bloom, this magazine flourishes because of you. Your stories, photos and shared moments are what make each issue special. Thank you for being part of our growing community — we can’t wait to see what the rest of the season brings!
