A MONTHLY LETTER FOR MOTHERHOOD
But who encourages the mother?
That’s why I created these letters.
Each month, a heartfelt, research-backed letter exploring the joys, struggles, and often unspoken experiences of motherhood, woven with Scripture, understanding, and gentle encouragement.
Written from one mother to another. Delivered to your mailbox.
A research-backed letter exploring one honest part of motherhood, woven with Scripture, understanding, and gentle encouragement for the season you’re in.
A heartfelt prayer inspired by the month’s theme. Something to return to when your heart is full, but the words are hard to find.
Three gentle, realistic ways to bring what you’ve read into your everyday life as a mother.
A little surprise to treasure. Perhaps a poem, a bookmark, or a thoughtful keepsake inspired by the month’s message.
Choose your monthly letter subscription and make a little room for encouragement in your mailbox.
Each month, I research, reflect, and pray before writing an original letter by hand. That letter is carefully reproduced and prepared for you.
Your letter and its thoughtful little extras arrive by mail, ready to open, read slowly, and keep.
Meet Mercy
I’m a Christian mother of three, a former elementary teacher, a certified parenting educator, and the writer behind Dear Mom, It’s Okay.
For years, I’ve written about motherhood and parenting, helping mothers understand the why behind their children’s behavior.
But somewhere along the way, I began asking a different question.
Who is caring for the mother who spends so much of her life caring for everyone else?
That question stayed with me.
And it eventually inspired me to create something slower, more personal, and deeply meaningful.
A little letter in the mailbox, thoughtfully prepared for the mother behind the motherhood.
Because I believe mothers deserve to feel seen, understood, and cared for, too.
