Alison -Goodreads Reviewer
Elena and her husband, Michael, who have been married for 21 years, are a testament to the Lord weaving a grace-filled tapestry of family life. Blessed to live in the picturesque river valley of Wisconsin with their six lively sons, their home echoes with laughter, music, wrestling matches, and endless creative endeavors amid nature’s rhythms.
When their youngest son, Rhodes, was born at home with Down Syndrome, their lives opened up in entirely new ways. Rhodes brought a profound awareness of the dignity, beauty, and miracle of human life, teaching them the unmatched joy of seeing the world through fresh, wonder-filled eyes. His presence expanded their hearts and connected them to a treasured community that celebrates each person’s unique strengths and abilities.
From the tender age of six months, Rhodes showed a special love for reading, igniting a new spark in Elena’s heart. The quiet moments spent reading together, surrounded by treasured books, inspired her to create Rhodes’ Magnificent Toes, a book celebrating his delightful spirit and the playfulness he brings to their family every day.
In addition to her writing, Elena wears many hats. She is a devoted homeschooler and homemaker, equipped with spunk and ingenuity, committed to cultivating hearts for truth, beauty, and goodness through intentional living. As a mompreneur, she founded Mayhem & Mercy, a brand reflecting the beauty and grit of motherhood. For over a decade, she has also served as a passionate abolitionist of human abortion, standing as a voice for the pre-born and urging the Church and culture to walk in the light of God’s truth.
Through her life and advocacy, Elena hopes to inspire others to follow the narrow path that leads to life, living with the conviction that, with the Lord’s help and strength, we are capable of doing hard things.
