Hi, I’m Andrea!

I’m a wife and adoptive mom of a multi-racial family. I am also a special-needs mom of an adult son with limited cognitive abilities and a unique way of navigating the world.

But mostly I’m just a woman who is learning day by day what it means to love and be loved by her Creator.

I write the things that I need to remind myself of. I write things that I hope will stir the spirit toward a deeper devotion to Jesus. I write of things often hidden underneath the clamor and distress of the world, where faith finds grounding in hope.

I hope you are blessed by what you read here, as I am blessed in the writing of it.
