About Me
Hey friend,.. I'm Kaylee, I’m a wife to Jeremy, mom to three boys, children’s ministry director, writer, creator, and a Louisiana girl now raising my family outside Houston.
I thrive in organized chaos, and yes... I've been known to misplace my keys before I even get out of the car. :)
I love a good system, a color coded calendar, pretty notebooks, baseball bleachers, ministry people, and knowing exactly what the plan is.
Which is mildly inconvenient when God decides the plan is going to change.
I’ve spent years serving and leading in children’s ministry, and somewhere along the way I’ve learned that faith rarely looks as neat in real life as it does written on paper.
Most days, it looks like ordinary obedience, loving people, raising boys, leading teams, asking hard questions, laughing when I probably should, standing firm when it matters, and trusting God with what I cannot control.
I don’t have a formula for doing life perfectly.
I do know the One who has been faithful through every part of mine.
The Story I Didn't Plan
I certainly didn’t plan this part.
What began in 2025 as a medical interruption became a season that changed far more than my calendar.
There were surgeries, recoveries, unexpected appointments, questions, fear, people God placed in exactly the right places, moments I still cannot explain apart from Him, and eventually grief I never saw coming.
For a woman who genuinely appreciates a plan, God apparently had other ideas.
But He also had purpose.
He slowed me down enough to show me what had been running on empty, what mattered, what needed rebuilding, and what He had been preparing in me long before I knew I would need it.
I began paying closer attention.
To His timing.
To Scripture.
To people.
To the stories I didn’t want to forget.
And to the things He had already put in my hands ...ministry, leadership, writing, creating, motherhood, and a voice I’m learning not to apologize for when He asks me to use it.
Grace & Grit.life grew from there.
Not because I came out of a hard season with all the answers.
Because I came out of it more certain of the One who does!
