My Thoughts:

I have always tried to be a "perfect mom" but I realized that no one is perfect and the book helped me realize that. the book is full of wonderful stories about parenthood that put a smile on my face. The author provided me with tips on how to be a "real mom" and showed us all that no one is perfect. It was written as a memoir full of real life experiences of the author and her family. You do not have to be a mom to appreciate the book and I recommend it to everyone who wants to learn a little about parenting.
