Just Show Up

Just Show Up is a children's book for adults who think like children. After watching a series on Oprah about boys without fathers, and raising a son primarily on my own, this short book came to life. Being an adult who has thought like a child at times in her life, the thought of what seems so simple to most sometimes does not dawn on others in relation to simply being physically there for your children. With hope that one page or illustration in this book could help a parent have a better relationship with their children, make better memories, and avoid others, or just start the conversation of what it means to 'just show up.'
