Three years ago on the way home from Allume Conference, I got a tweet from someone named Ashlee Gadd. I tweeted back, and that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship that literally spans the continent.
I’m in Georgia, she’s in California, and the only time we’ve ever met in person was in Guatemala with Children’s HopeChest last year. But when she told me about a new kind of space that she was creating for mothers, I was in. Ashlee envisioned a place on the internet where moms could read stories of parenting over reheated coffee at a table covered in crumbs. Through hard work, creativity, and great leadership, she brought Coffee+Crumbs to fruition. We offer no advice or opinions, just ourselves and our own experiences. Ashlee’s cultivated a kind and accepting community in the midst of an internet so often filled with harsh judgment. And I’m crazy proud to write alongside some of the best and bravest bloggers I’ve ever read.
Now for some big news. We have a book coming out with Zondervan on April 4, filled with beautiful photography and essays from our own parenting journeys. The Magic of Motherhood is the perfect gift for a new mom or your own self. Over and over through it’s pages, we remind each other, “You are not alone.”
