Summary, Etc. "An illustrated, warm hug of a book that will make you feel a little less alone. Supreme moments of beauty and joy are found in mess -- and Jess Bird is proof. As a queer woman who received a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, Jess is raising her kids in a blended family, rewriting the rules as she goes along. She is not an expert, and she's not perfect; she's a messy, in-process human who just wants to help others through difficult times. Bless the Messy embraces the chaos that comes with life, honoring the full spectrum of emotions from oy to sorrow that make us human. With bright watercolors, bold collages, and introspectively quirky musings on life, Jess explores the depths of her struggles and brings us to the places where she's found contentment and stability. Bless the Messy is a stunningly insightful book about growing through trauma and healing and breaking free from society's expectations. Jess pushes boundaries and redefines the meaning of home and chosen family while emphasizing the importance of finding your self-worth and embracing anti-perfectionism. Bright and hopeful, real and raw, Bless the Messy will remind you that life can be a mess, and that's beautiful."-- Provided by publisher.
