Thanks again for the gift idea. Got mine in the mail yesterday...along with the book Snow. Going to make a great gift for a family wrapped up with some hot cocoa mugs.

Killeen's a big Nikki McClure fan - I'll have to share this book with her if she's not already aware of it. Killeen gave me one of her calendars last Christmas and recently attended one of Nikki's workshops out in Portland.

Thank you thank you thank you! I was just planning Christmas gifts for some close family friends. I have adorable cocoa mugs for the family and some hot chocolate mix. Was thinking of adding a Christmas movie. How boring...how zoned-out. Now I'm adding this wonderful book instead and finding a couple of others to go with it. Great suggestion!!!

Okay, this gave me chills, too. And it wasn't just the blood rushing out of my knee after hopping around the apartment trying to put the baby to bed by myself. Going to Amazon now to check out the two books you mention ...

What a beautiful book. I love those lines. I have a 3rd-baby baby shower next weekend and I think I'll pick up a copy of this book to add to her basket.

Thanks for the link, and the solidarity. It is tough some days, and like you, I'm working on being more mindful, more purposeful in all that I do. Have a post about that very thing brewing around.
Love the book. Will be adding it to the kids' wish list!

Looks like an inspiring book.

Reminds me of my blog title, and favorite Bible verse: This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Even on the not-so-great, nothing-much-accomplished days...we are blessed to have even those days with our family, and even though you think you did nothing, your mere presence is more than some kids have. Don't be too hard on yourself; the days when your kids are little are tough, but they're also FULL. You're a great mom, and your love for your family is evident. Start there, and you can't go wrong.
