I had the chance to read Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday by Valerie Woerner
I loved it.
BUT, I have to be honest. When I first got this book, I thought, oh, I'm just going to look over it, and then review it. I think it's totally for moms of toddlers and won't apply. Check.
Then I started reading........ um, well, um.
I got my toes stepped on a little bit.
If you're read my posts you know that it's the all important decision - to underline or not to underline. I had decided before reading the book, no underlining and giving the book away. In fact, someone asked for it and I said, "Sure you can read it and keep it.".
Oops.
Let's just say I needed the pen and may or may not ask for it back.
Valerie takes on real issues of control, prayer, the sacrifice of parenting (or JOY of parenting!), seasons of life, quiet time, fellowship, friendship and so much more. Grumpy Mom Takes A Holiday not only explores the challenges of motherhood and marriage, but offers practical advice with solutions!
I think what impressed me most was the wisdom Valerie shared from such a "younger mom" stage of life. Valerie shares in a real way with her own stories, failures and lessons along the way.
I really appreciated Grumpy Mom Takes A Holiday and would highly recommend. Unless, you don't want to get your toes stepped on!!!
I was given a free copy of Grumpy Mom Takes A Holiday for my honest review which I was happy to give.
