Hello everyone!

I appreciate your interest in my book and hope you enjoy it!

Aside from being a new author, I am also the founder of a nonprofit called Our Hearts Align. Our organization strives to serve families who have experienced a pregnancy loss. It is my goal to create new resources to assist those who have been touched by a pregnancy loss or early infant loss.

In 2013, I experienced my own pregnancy loss and it was one of the most difficult things I ever had to go through. My first book, Align Our Hearts: A Devotional for Pregnancy Loss, was created as a result of needing comfort during my loss and wanting to know what the Bible had to say about this topic. That book is meant to help provide comfort to moms in several different ways as a devotional, coloring book, and journal.

In my everyday life, I reside in North Central Florida with my beautiful family. My husband and two daughters are my world. We enjoy traveling and sharing new experiences together.

I graduated from the University of Florida (Go Gators!) with a Master of Education degree and previously worked as a kindergarten teacher in our local public schools. Education is a passion of mine and I now look forward to educating others in the area of pregnancy loss.

If you need additional pregnancy loss resources please visit our website at www.ourheartsalign.org

Great resource!
My children haven’t experienced a miscarriage firsthand, but I love that this book opens up the door to have conversations with them about a topic that isn’t often spoken about. Even if they never experience pregnancy loss themselves, they are now better equipped to help support others who have experienced a loss.

I bought this for my son and daughter in law, and their daughters after the loss of their daughter at 37 weeks gestation. Sweet Olive June was born sleeping. Our family was devastated and they didn’t know how to help their other daughters with the loss. After reading many reviews, I chose this book. They reported that it was helpful.

What a wonderful way to help children and even families process pregnancy loss. Since reading this book, I have suggested it for other families too. I would have loved to have this, when we had to explain our first pregnancy loss to our son 7 years ago. It also helped my heart too. What a blessing this book is.

Exactly what a parent needs to explain to their children, about pregnancy loss. Highly recommend. It took that hard discussion and made it easy to understand. Wish I had this for my miscarriage. I just pretended it took forever to have a baby. I didn't know what to say or do.

I knew the topic but wondered how this would be a gentle story? I was all set to cry! And yet the story was told in a very gentle way, a way that children can understand. Beautifully illustrated, this is an excellent book and I HIGHLY recommend Kara Mangum’s story!

This book can be fitting for children or adults, as well as anyone in any stage of parenting or loss. The most profound statement was that we are sad, but still hopeful for the future and are honoring their life.
