review 1: I am a mother of a teen and 21 yr. old but one is always a mother. Whether your children are at home or away your influence is felt and is important. Last year for Mother's Day I gave this book to all my friends and family regardless of the age of their children. This is a MUST READ for every mother, teacher, and person who wants to be a positive influence in the lives of children around them. It is not just for mothers who have young children. The principles are applicable to so many realms or seasons of life. It is artfully written but easily understood. The author presents material and experiences in such a way that it incites a good laugh, then later brings you to profound self realizations and reflections, and ultimately inspires you, not through guilt or judgement,b... moreut rather through vision and perspective. It speaks of many basic and fundamental truths that we all know or have experienced. However, the author helps us make those connections of the everyday things with the greater consequences of covenant motherhood whether that be with our own children, children we teach or other children we are blessed to have an association with.
review 2: I love, love, LOVE this book! This is such a good book that I bought one for all of my friends. This book does not make you feel guilty or feel like you will never be a good mother. She teaches you and gives examples how we are exemplifying the Savior in the small things we do. She helped me to realize that I am doing ok even on my bad days. She gives me that boost and motivation I need. She doesn't give you parenting tips or tell you that "if you don't do this then you are wrong"...or "if you do this then you are wrong." She gently shares her experiences as a mother and then shares her insights from Christ's life and how His work parallels our work. I used to think that the Savior couldn't possibly know what it is like to be a mother. (not being a woman or having children of his own) but she has helped me to understand that he does know and that he is here to help us. Anyway, whether you are a new mom or a seasoned mom this book is fabulous and every mother should read it! Seriously, you will want a highlighter and you will want it near your scriptures! less
