Shelby Vincent joined Tonya on the Midday Mama Show to share the heart behind her powerful children’s book, Perfect Through and Through, inspired by her daughter, Nyomi. Born with a rare tumor that caused nerve damage, Nyomi once asked her mom, “When will I be normal like everyone else?” That tender question ignited a passion in Shelby to help children understand that different doesn’t mean less. Her beautifully written book, featuring characters based on real kids with medical challenges, shines a light on the truth that we are all wonderfully made by God. Shelby’s hope is to encourage families to have honest conversations about medical differences and to remind every child that their uniqueness is part of God’s perfect design.
