Of all the hats Julie Lavender has worn, her favorite by far is the “mommy” hat. She believes it’s the most challenging, yet most rewarding, position she’s ever held. Julie thanks God every day for the gift of motherhood and is very grateful for God’s blessings and guidance throughout her parenting journey.

An author, journalist, and former homeschooling mom of 25 years, Julie holds a master’s degree in early childhood education. She is married to her high school and college sweetheart, and together, Julie and David are the parents of four, in-laws of two, and grandparents to a precious almost-five-year-old grandson.

Julie loved living in various locations across the country as the wife of a United States Navy medical entomologist. She taught public school before becoming a stay-at-home, homeschooling mommy. After her husband retired from active duty, the Lavenders moved back to their hometown, and David began work as a wildlife biologist at a nearby army installation.

Julie’s most recent book, also published by Penguin Random House, Children’s Bible Stories for Bedtime, was truly a heart-project, and Julie loves that the 52 Bible stories help children snuggle up with thoughts of God’s love before going to bed each night. Prior to that, Julie wrote 365 Ways to Love Your Child: Turning Little Moments into Lasting Memories, published by Revell/Baker, to encourage parents to show kids every day how much they are loved with simple but meaningful gestures and activities.
