Toi was raised in Atlanta but moved to the Midwest the summer before she started high school. She and her husband, Chris, make their home in northwest Alabama. They have 3 children.  She and her family are active in their church.  When she isn't forgetting to thaw dinner out, Toi volunteers in the nursery and children ministry at her church.  Toi enjoys quiet time with the Lord during the day by shoveling spoonfuls of Hazelnut spread to her children to keep them quiet.  Toi has a heart for others. She wants to bring encouragement through her writing especially to fellow wives and mothers.
