Present Over Perfect

MacKenzie Canlis: you all gave me the courage to change
my life in ways I desperately needed.
Much gratitude to Carolyn McCready, Lauren Winner,
and Angela Scheff—I’m the luckiest writer on earth to work
with three brilliant, loving women like you. You went above
and beyond on this one. You three are spectacular, and I’m
endlessly thankful.
Thanks as well to Chris Ferebee, my agent and my
friend, and to Tim Schraeder, Londa Alderink, Greg Clouse,
Curt Diepenhorst, Jennifer VerHage, and the rest of the kind
and capable HarperCollins Christian team.
And I’ll end the way I began, with heart-bursting
amounts of love for my three precious boys: Aaron, Henry,
and Mac. I love you with my whole heart.
