Moms...Read this book!

I just finished a book that I wish I could buy for every mom!  I might just have to make my husband read it too.  It's called Loving the Little Years: Motherhood in the Trenches by Rachel Jankovic...(he can read it on his iPad so no one will see the title).

It's an easy read, but full of richness.  It's not a book of lofty ideas that are hard to apply.  She gives her own real life examples, which I really enjoyed.

"Sometimes all we really need is a fresh perspective on our circumstances.  We need someone to open a window and let a breeze blow into the room that we didn't realize had gotten so stuffy.


This book is about hardship and humor, sacrifice and satisfaction.


This is not a tender reminiscence from someone who had children so long ago that she only remembers the sweet parts.


I didn't write this book because mothering little ones is easy for me.  I wrote it because it isn't.   I know you need encouragement because I do too." ~ Loving the Little Years


At the time of writing this book, she had five kids 5 and under!  Three in diapers!
You have time to read this.  It's short and sweet.  Soul-searching and practical.
