What's up, fam? Welcome back to the world. That's go podcast happy Wednesday. Everybody. I hope you're having a great week, but per usual, it is about to get way better because I have a fantastic guest on the podcast.

I'm so excited to interview and boss Kim on the podcast. She is probably no stranger to any of you.

She's written several books and now she has a children's book out, which I am super excited about called your brave song. I'm excited because I get to read these children's books to honey and not only do I get to minister to honey through that, but it ministers to me when authors like Anne write children's books. So Anne, I'm so excited to have you on the podcast. Thanks for taking the time to just be on and I encourage all of us.

So good to be with you, sady. And makes my makes my heart sing to think about I mean as a mama of seven kids, I have read thousands and thousands of books to kids.

But we homeschooled our kids. It was like two hours of reading every day and then tucking kids into bed at night and you're right, sady, when we go ahead and when we read books as the mother, yes, we want to impart something to our children, but it's also really beautiful when the book is actually speaking to parts of our own souls too.

And it happens so many times. I have this one book I've read over honey so many times like, you know, honey, pick the book, but I end up picking that one every night. And it always just speaks to me like it makes me tear you had some times whenever I read it.

It's called what's it called? It's called Good Night My Darling Dear is the one. And I don't know if you've read that one, but it's beautiful. And I was thinking when I got yours and I have to say the reason I don't have it here today to show

you all the beautiful cover it is. It's because I brought it home yesterday to read it to honey. And I forgot to bring it back. But I have to say what's really cool about the book too is my mom just saw it walking past me and she goes that book is beautiful. And I go, oh, it's and

I was like, no way. And it really is just a stunning book. The message is so beautiful. And since I've read Good Night My Darling Dear so many times, I'm excited to have a new one to add into the pile of just such a beautiful story and book. And so first of all, mom of seven kids, whoa, I have a lot to learn from you.

Just writing a children's book with all the thousands that you've read. What was it that you really were like, you know, I want to write a children's book because I want this message to get across.

It's such a good question, Sadie. I think when we read, we read a children's book, we want to, as parents, we need to write, read a book that is not boring for us as a parent to read over and over and over again.

It has to be a message that a parent needs as much as a child needs. And I think so writing this particular book is a book that as much speaks to a parent's heart as it does to a child's heart.

And I think really, really sadate.

So our children run an ages now from 27 down to eight. We have four boys and three girls. The first six were biological kids that were at, we had six kids across 10 years.
