I am so excited for you to listen to the first episode in a special three-part series—Imagine the Keepsake.

In this first episode, I’m sharing the heart behind Consider the Crayons, a brand new heirloom keepsake book created for mothers and their children—designed to be experienced together and treasured for years to come.

Beautifully illustrated by Olivia Anderson, this book is now available on Amazon (softcover only at this time, though hardcover may appear listed but is not yet available. It is coming soon :).

We hope you find it draws you closer to Him, and closer to your little ones as you read and experience this book together :)

Next in the series: Remember the Keepsake with Olivia, the illustrator of this special book.

I hope that after today's episode, time at the sink becomes sacred time with Him, as you now see dishes as 'lilies', reminders of His love and strength He offers us in motherhood.

In this episode, I’m joined by Aleah from LDS Bookstore — a beautiful Christ-centered company I’ve loved for a long time. Aleah has spent over a decade working with LDS Bookstore, currently working in product development and design, helping create meaningful reminders of Christ for women and families.

Together we talk about the purpose behind these products, the power of simple reminders in our homes, and how small things can help deepen our relationship with Jesus Christ in everyday motherhood.

In today's Easter episode, I share an experience I had after the birth of our son, in what I hope will be an Easter lily you can both relate to, and use to remember the Savior during this sacred weekend and always.

From lightning lanes to height requirements, there are connections to Jesus Christ and His gospel that can help us in our daily lives as parents raising young children in today’s world.

Join Seth and I as we share parenthood parables from the most magical place on Earth. 

Perhaps one of the hardest things of motherhood is being sick.. in addition to caring for our sick children at the same time.

I hope today's episode can be a staple in your spiritual medicine cabinet, as a way to help you find the healing and strengthening power of the Savior even during your most challenging sick days.
