WELCOME
Wildflower & Quill is a collection of writings and poems to encourage your heart, nurturing your mind, and inspire your faith.
Life is challenging: Avalanches of adventures. Typhoons of trauma. Monumental moments. All of it leads us somewhere. Will it be closer to the Lord, or further away? I know what He desires, do you?
Bible studies, poetry, short stories: walking through difficulties whist maintaining focus on Jesus…
Wildflower & Quill is where faith and creativity intertwine. Through deep Bible studies, stories that uplift, and modest handmade goods, my goal is to encourage women to seek truth, embrace creativity, and walk confidently in their calling.
I’ve had a deep curiosity for studying the Bible, a whimsical heart for writing stories, and am drawn to creating beautiful things by hand. Over the years, I felt the Lord calling me to share these passions—not for my own glory, but to encourage others. Whether through a devotional, a heartfelt poem, or a carefully crafted garment, my hope is that everything here points back to Him.
I’d love for you to explore, be encouraged, and maybe even find something that speaks to your heart. If you’d like to stay connected, you can join my mailing list or find me on IG at @wildflowerandquill. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to hear from you!
Little Glimpses of My World
Bits of Beauty, Faith, & Wonder
Whimsical Words
Weaving words into stories and pouring my heart into poems; that’s what little me is made of.
Special Spaces
Frosty moments warmed by a fire. Puppy snuggles, lacy curtains, soft glowing lights; my heart’s desire.
Wildflower Woods
Flower petals dancing on the breeze, birds singing in the trees; Autumn leaves drifting to the ground, snowy days with no sound.
Motherhood Moments
Motherhood; my intentional journey of trial and error. Walking the path of growing while learning to embrace imperfection.
Lifelong Learning
Homeschooling c. 2008: a challenge.
An adventure into the unknown. Grasping for understanding in the realm of home educating my sons.
Flourishing Family
Laughing, talking, joking, struggling and striving. We walk the diverse path of growing stronger together and (prayerfully) closer to Jesus.
He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.
Timeline
How It All Began
Before Grace
Looking back, I can see God’s hand protecting me even in the midst of chaos. Growing up in a challenging and unstable environment taught me resilience, though I didn’t yet recognize the deeper purpose He had for my life. At 16, my world changed when I intentionally became a mom—an overwhelming and beautiful responsibility that would ultimately prepare me for God’s transformative work in the years ahead.
Through the Wilderness
My late teens and early twenties were marked by painful experiences—years of searching for meaning and peace in all the wrong places. Yet even in my wandering, God was quietly working behind the scenes, planting seeds of His grace and love. Though I couldn’t see it then, He was drawing me closer to Him, preparing me for a season of healing and redemption.
The Turning Point
At 23, I hit rock bottom and entered rehab—a turning point where I truly encountered God’s love for the first time. It was in that season that I began to understand what it meant to surrender my life to Him. The chaos and brokenness I had carried for so long were slowly replaced by His peace, grace, and the promise of a new beginning.
A Foundation of Faith
As I began to walk with Jesus, He transformed every part of my life—my family, my home, and my heart. These years were about learning to trust Him fully, growing in His Word, and leaning on His promises. It was also during this time that I embraced homeschooling and began nurturing my children in a Christ-centered environment.
Discovering My Purpose
In my 30s, God revealed a new purpose for my life: using my experiences to encourage other women. I began writing stories and devotionals, weaving faith into every word. In 2019, Wildflower & Quill was born, a space where I could share my journey and create resources to help others grow in faith and purpose.
Walking in Grace
Today, Wildflower & Quill is a reflection of God’s redemptive work in my life. It’s a place where women can find hope, encouragement, and practical tools to thrive in their faith and homes. My prayer is that every resource, story, and message points back to His unfailing love and inspires others to trust in His perfect plan.
