It’s so nice to meet you!
I’m Susie, and I’m so happy to connect with you here. This space is for you…created to encourage and lighten your heart with refreshment and hope.
why i write
I write because life is sometimes harder than we’d like it to be, and faith can feel like a struggle. By sharing God’s Word in simple and relatable ways, my desire is that we will grow together in our faith and live in the fullness of the joy of Jesus.
I have been teaching grades Pre-K through 8 for over 35 years. Currently, I teach music, physical education, art, and technology at an all-kindergarten school.
I’m the author of Just One Word: 90 Devotions to Invite Jesus In, Harvest House, 2018, and Lighthearted, B & H Books, 2024. My first children’s picture book Where is Sheep 100? A Skip-Counting Book is being published by B & H Kids in July 2025.
my guys
My husband Bob and I live in the Puget Sound region of Washington State. We love to hike, kayak, discover new coffee shops, and cheer for Seattle sports teams. Most of all, we enjoy spending time with our two adult sons.
