I often find myself wishing for when my kids are a little bit older when things might get a little easier... but I find myself realizing they grow so fast and there are different challenges for each season. How do I find joy and peace in the moment especially as a mother aware of so many constant needs? The Gift of a Happy Mother is a beautiful gift to mothers everywhere. It’s a practical and research-based way to live your life as a whole and valuable person while still loving your family well. I love the interactive parts at the end of each chapter and as a pre-reader I received a 30 day journal that was a great month-long-reset on how I was treating my needs as less valuable than the needs of my kiddos. Self care isn’t selfish and it doesn’t have to be costly or time consuming either. If you have ever wondered how to be present and enjoy being present with your kids, then this book is for you.
