When life looks radically different than the plan we have for
ourselves, it's the lucky few that recognize God's plan is best.
That's what adoptive mom Heather Avis learned, and that's the
invitation of this book. As the mother of three adopted children -
two with Down syndrome - Heather Avis has learned that it's truly
the lucky few who get to live a life like hers, who actually
recognize that God's plans are best, even when they seem so
radically different from the plans we have for ourselves. When
Heather started her journey into parenthood she never thought it
would look like this, never planned to have three adopted children,
and certainly never imagined that two of them would have Down
syndrome. But like most things God does, once she stepped into the
craziness and confusion that comes with the unknown and the
unplanned, she realized that they were indeed among the lucky few.
Discover in this book what 70,000+ followers of Heather's hit
Instagram account @macymakesmyday already know: the power of faith
and family can help us stay strong in the toughest times. This book
will also be especially touching to those with adopted family
members or children with Down syndrome in their lives.
Hilarious and heartwarming stories that will empower you to make
space for the other and discover the extraordinary, welcoming heart
of God. Author and Instagram star Heather Avis has made it her
mission to introduce the world to the unique gifts and real-life
challenges of those who have been pushed to the edges of society.
Mama to three adopted kids--two with Down Syndrome--Heather
encourages us all to take a breath, whisper a prayer, laugh a
little, and make room for the wildflowers. In a world of divisions
and margins, those who act, look, and grow a little differently are
all too often shoved aside. Scoot Over and Make Some Room is part
inspiring narrative and part encouraging challenge for us all to
listen and learn from those we're prone to ignore. Heather tells
hilarious stories of her growing kids, spontaneous dance parties,
forgotten pants, and navigating the challenges and joys of
parenthood. She shares heartbreaking moments when her kids were
denied a place at the table and when she had to fight for their
voices to be heard. With beautiful wisdom and profound convictions,
this manifesto will empower you to notice who's missing in the
spaces you live in, to make room for your own kids and for those
others who need you and your open heart. This is your invitation to
a table where space is unlimited and every voice can be heard.
Because when you open your life to the wild beauty of every unique
individual, you'll discover your own colorful soul and the
extraordinary, abundant heart of God.
