Hi, I’m Emily! I'm a mama to two little girls (and one more on the way), and the heart behind Be Still.

We love being outside, homeschooling, creating with our hands, and finding beauty in the ordinary rhythms of family life. I created Be Still because I wanted to help my own children slow down and truly notice the world around them. I want my children to recognize their Creator through His creation and to cultivate a lifelong love for what is good, true, and beautiful.

What started as a little idea for our family grew into this journal, and after a year of writing, designing, praying, and filling page after page, I’m so happy to share it with you. 🤍

I hope Be Still brings a little more wonder, beauty, and time outside into your family's days.
