Through pressing through her fear and jumping off the cliff into parenthood, she discovered a new beginning in life, bursting with more joy than she knew to anticipate. Surprise continues to be a theme in her mothering journey, and these candid stories of beauty, challenge, and humor unpack not only what each unexpected has taught her, but also which scripture it demonstrated in the here and now. Embark on this month-long read expecting to experience how present and accessible God is as we parent, how alive His Word is, and how much He desires to transform us through the process.
