About Me
I live in rural Oklahoma with my husband and daughter, where life is measured by flower seasons, changing skies, and long conversations on the porch.
Over the years, I’ve realized I kept looking for God in the loud and impressive. More often, though, He was there — in the dishes, the winding dirt roads, the bedtime prayers, and the quiet mornings when I finally slowed down enough to notice.
That’s why I write.
Whether it’s a children’s book, a Dear Mama letter, or a personal essay, my hope is always the same: to help weary women lift their eyes to the God who has been with them all along.
Around here you’ll find stories, Scripture, and reminders that God is present in the ordinary moments we might otherwise overlook.
I’m so grateful you’re here.
And if you’d like to know what led me to this particular porch, I’ve shared my personal testimony here.
