“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” Leanne Bowen heard this Mary Oliver quote during a talk. It would change the trajectory of her life forever. She knew if she was fully alive, she would be painting. Now she paints and makes alongside her two little girls and husband at the base of the Sierra Nevadas in California. It truly is a wild and precious life. What is Jesus calling you to do with yours?
“I am a wife to a firefighter, a mother and teacher to six crazy awesome kids, and mostly recently, a business owner. Cause of Our Joy started as a desire to bring my husband home. He works two jobs to support our big family and homeschooling life, and we miss him. So after watching a lot of youtube videos during laundry folding and floor mopping, I decided I could help. After designing my first t-shirts for my kids patron saints, I realized I LOVE designing.
So, welcome to my little corner of the Internet. Stay a while and if you can’t find exactly what you want, I will make it for you. God is so good and I want my shop to glorify Him in every way along with helping others live their faith.”

This beautiful image of the Virgen de Guadalupe is accentuated with flowers that will never wilt! Great gift idea to celebrate the Feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe in December or Christmas gift for moms, grandmothers and newlyweds who are starting to build their home altars. The picture does not do this item justice. It is absolutely stunning. This is a gift is sure to be an heirloom passed on for generations.
This 4oz. amber glass bottle is a perfect complement for the intentional Catholic home. The overlapping symbols represent the intersection of the material and the divine, and illustrate the source of sacramental power: the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ.
Ten Symbols are illustrated in the piece: HIS (monogram taken from the Greek spelling of Jesus), the consecrated host, 12 stars (representing the 12 tribes of Israel), ichthys (“Jesus fish”), Chi Rho (representing the first two letters of the Greek word Christos), ancient Hebrew for Yeshua and Yahweh, crosses representing His suffering for our redemption, crowns representative of His kingship, and the Alpha and Omega symbols representing His all-encompassing presence.
