By Stacey A. Shannon on Thursday, May 6, 2021

The precious messes that come with motherhood I originally wrote this in April of 2015 when my son was 2 and my daughter was 5-1/2. I have learned that motherhood and messes really do go hand-in-hand, even now that my children are older. The messes might change, but they’re still there! Last week my son …

Pandemic fatigue and moms

By Stacey A. Shannon on Thursday, April 15, 2021

The exhaustion many moms are feeling more than a year later I can’t speak for all moms, but I can speak for myself. And I can attest that pandemic fatigue is real. Yes, it’s real for everyone. No, I’m not saying any one population has it worse than another. But, I am saying that it …

About This Blog

Welcome to Families with Grace! My name is Stacey, and I’m a follower of Jesus, a wife, a mom of two kiddos and a freelance journalist. I share a little bit of all of that here on Families with Grace along with some practical and spiritual tips. I am passionate about extending grace. God gives me so much grace when I flop and flail and mess up. Yet, He keeps on loving me. I’ve realized that grace plays such a huge role in family life. We can be so quick to extend grace and kindness to other people – sometimes complete strangers – and forget to do so inside our homes with the very people we love the most. Grace is a daily (sometimes minute-by-minute!) challenge, so this page is all about that. You’ll find lessons I’ve learned as a Christian, a wife and a mom. I share emotional and spiritual thoughts as well as practical ones. Even a family with grace needs practical ideas for how to make life run smoother and easier. Join me on the journey to create a home filled with grace, love and faith as we build our Families with Grace!

About Me
Stacey
Stacey

I fell in love with writing when I was a child; it has always been part of my life. I have two degrees in journalism and started my own freelance writing company in 2002. I continue to work as a freelance journalist, copywriter and editor. Along with that, I have been married to my high school sweetheart since 1999. In 2009 and 2013, our family grew to include first a daughter and then a son. I deal with a couple of chronic illnesses and feel blessed to be able to work from home while my kiddos are at school. My husband works from home the majority of the time as well. Thankfully, we still enjoy being together and have learned to give each other a lot of grace! Even through the trials of life, God has been so good to us. I love being able to share with you what He is doing in our lives!
