Welcome to Milkweed & Monarchs – Episode 57: The Limousine

Hi everyone, I’m Dawn Klem, and today I’m taking you on a ride—literally and emotionally. In this heartfelt episode, I share the story of how Craig and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary in a way that completely defied my “plain Jane” nature. From cryptic clues and single roses to a surprise limousine ride and a pearl necklace, this episode is a tribute to unexpected romance, thoughtful gestures, and the beauty of being loved just as you are.

Whether you’re someone who prefers jeans over jewels or you live for grand romantic gestures, this story will warm your heart and maybe even inspire your own celebration. Buckle up—this limousine ride is one for the memory books.
