Jesus is Risen! Alleluia!

Help me to fully embrace Jesus’ victory over death and the joy of the Easter season.

Help me to take hold of the grace that is flowing down from heaven.

Help me to spread the Good News through my words, my action, and my vocation as a Christian mother and wife.

Help me to feast on the Bread of Life and to think of myself as dead to sin but alive to Jesus. (Romans 6:11)

Jesus is risen! Alleluia!

Your girls are soooo beautiful!

Happy Easter!

I’m a wife, mom of five kids, writer, speaker, storyteller, bibliophile, runner, eating disorder survivor, and perfectionist in recovery. I'm the author of Getting Past Perfect: Finding Joy & Grace in the Messiness of Motherhood and Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body.

I’ve tried a lot of things in my life – anorexia, bulimia, law school, teaching aerobics, extended breastfeeding, vegetarianism, trying to be perfect and failing miserably at it – and through it all I’ve been writing. And learning to embrace the messiness of life instead of covering it up, making excuses for it, or being ashamed of my brokenness or my home’s sticky counters.

Nowadays I’m striving every single, imperfect day to strike a balance between keeping it real and keeping it joyful.

Jesus is Risen! Alleluia!
