Matchless: (adjective) “having no equal; peerless; unequaled; incomparable.“

Matchless Daughter’s self-portrait

Let’s get right to it, shall we? I’m Leah and I believe all women & girls have matchless inner beauty.  I am thrilled to be starting a new journey of blogging and launching my very own company based on that belief.  Both endeavors are inspired by the chaos, tears, and delight of having a daughter who is beautiful, unique & MATCHLESS inside and out.  Whether they are tiny or old, close or far away, making us laugh, cry, or pull our hair out (with how similar to us they are), they each hold an untouchable place in our hearts and are unlike any other.  They are matchless.

As a mom of a younger daughter, I’m blown away by how much I’ve learned from her sweet spirit.  She makes me laugh so hard I choke on my coffee.  When I mess up big time, I’m tearfully overwhelmed by her forgiveness and grace.  I see God working in her and I see her struggles.  She’s not perfect & I’m not perfect.  And it can get messy.  But it’s a beautiful mess and I wouldn’t trade it for anything (not even magically self-folded laundry every day of my life, and if you know me, that’s a BIG statement!).

Through OurMatchlessBeauty.com, my goal is for both mothers and daughters to know that they are “peerless; unequaled; incomparable” beauties on the inside (too many of us moms are quick to claim that for our daughters, but hesitant for ourselves, right?). We’ll explore, discuss, and wrestle it together.    We’ll laugh, cry, and enjoy the journey, no matter if you’re a mama of littles or bigs.  All are welcome.

Guess what? My new company is also inspired by my daughter!  It’s fun, fresh, & “unmatched” in itself.  I’m beyond excited and you can check it out when it launches on Etsyin the next couple of months.  Until then, keep minivac-ing those cheerios off the floor, spit-cleaning jelly faces, reminding them of totally unfair curfews, and making sure they remembered to do their homework.  And while you’re at it, sneak her an “I love you just as you are” the next moment you can.  Mine always gives me an extra big squeeze for that.  But before you go, check out some upcoming topics:
