Originally from Newport News, Virginia and grown in the burbs of Omaha, Nebraska, I’m now a housewife, mother, and writer for the Catholic Connection living in the Bible Belt of Northern Louisiana. I went to Benedictine College in Atchison, KS and then married my best friend and dearest love Andrew in June of ’08. God has since blessed us with two little boys and I am continually humbled by His abundant blessings to us. My soul’s desire is to obtain sainthood through humbly living out my vocation, one loving deed at a time.

I dedicate all my efforts and reflections to the glory of God, through the intercession of St. Elizabeth of Hungary, who was defined not only by her love of the poor, but also her deep love for her husband.

She lived her married life affectionately, with every fiber of her being,
and revealed to her husband a sweet womanly charm full of tenderness.
