Threads of Grace
Life is messy
Welcome to Simply Susan, where I write honestly about faith, marriage, motherhood and the everyday threads of God’s grace.
So grab a coffee.
Pull up a chair.
I’m so glad you’re here.
Walking humblythrough faith, family and life’s adventures.
Come in, come in! Have a seat around the table so we can pause, pour a coffee, and discover God’s grace woven through the threads of everyday life.
Life hasn’t always been neat and tidy, None of my ducks are in a row. Like many women, I’ve known seasons of joy, disappointment, deep hurt, and unexpected adventure. As I look back over the years, I can see the threads of God’s grace woven through every season—through joy and heartbreak, marriage and motherhood, unanswered questions, quiet faithfulness, and even the unexpected adventures of later life.
Looking back over my life, I can see a thread.
Sometimes that disappeared beneath grief.
Sometimes it seemed tangled beyond repair.
Sometimes it was woven with unexpected joy.
But through every season, God never let go of the thread.
Simply Susan is where I share honest reflections on marriage, motherhood, faith, books, coffee, being a SAHM, working outside the home, motorcycles, and the everyday moments where God’s grace quietly meets us.

Home & Life
'If at first you don't succeed…' takes on a whole new meaning…
This is no longer a holiday. My husband is on a quest...a mission...this is bordering on obsession!? We are living out the quote, "If at first you don't succeed, Try, Try, Try again." We're heading off in the small hours of the morning again...to head for our home...
The Trip That Wasn't…
Talk about an adventure that wasn't!? That'll be the title by which our family remembers this Christmas period. We had planned the trip for weeks, with the children all getting excited, saving our pennies, organising the house, and figuring out the logistics of having...
