Stacey is a wife and proud girl mom who began blogging after choosing to be open-handed with her story – one that includes a child with a chronic illness and a husband who is still recovering from a life-threatening cardiac event. Self-described as “a believer and writer who loves God’s Word and connecting with women,” Stacey has written several books and hundreds of blog posts to encourage other weary moms with the message that God never wastes our pain; He is always working for our good.
