A Space for the Real, the Messy, and the Beautiful

I’m Leeanne. I’m a mom with cerebral palsy, living in a body that doesn’t always cooperate, but still trying to do the impossible: raise kids, love fully, and survive each day.

This space is for all of it—the messy, the holy, the exhausting, the beautiful. Not the “inspirational” version of motherhood you scroll past on social media. The real version: the days you wonder if you’re enough, the nights you feel stretched too thin, the moments when faith and frustration collide.

That Mom With CP started with my story, but it isn’t just about me. It’s about creating a place for other disabled moms—especially those with mobility or physical disabilities—to be heard, to be raw, and to know they’re not alone. Your struggles, your triumphs, your doubts, your joy—they belong here.

What You’ll Find Here

Identity & Faith

Learning to live the way my body moves. I’m not enough but I’m worthy because of Jesus. Finding worth that isn’t earned by pushing past pain.

The Emotional Reality

Grief, joy, and everything in between. Learning to forgive people who don’t understand my CP. The real version of disabled motherhood—where faith and frustration can coexist.

Advocacy & Education

Bringing awareness, naming what’s hard, and reframing the conversation. World CP Day reflections and breaking stereotypes about disabled motherhood.

“Here, bodies are not broken. Worth isn’t earned by pushing past pain. Motherhood isn’t measured in checklists or milestones. Faith is messy. Life is messy. And that’s okay.”

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

That Mom With CP isn’t just about me. It’s about community. It’s about making room for other disabled moms—especially those navigating mobility or physical disabilities—to tell their stories and know they’re not alone. It’s about bringing awareness, naming what’s hard, and finding strength together in the middle of it all.

If you’ve spent years hiding parts of yourself…If you’ve ever wished your body were different…If you’re parenting while carrying more than most people can see…

You’re not alone. You don’t have to pretend here.
