Description
Too many women believe the myth that motherhood and creativity are opposing pursuits. But if they look deeper, says artist and mother Ashlee Gadd, they'd discover how using their creative gifts in the midst of mothering enriches both experiences.
Sharing practical, hard-won lessons from years of creating in the margins of motherhood, Ashlee equips women to discover the sacred connection between creating and mothering--without feeling guilty or selfish. Through grace-filled prose, stunning photographs, journaling prompts, creative exercises, and quotes from fellow mother artists, you'll be inspired to make space--even in the middle of laundry, meals, and carpool--to pursue the creative dreams God has planted in your heart.
