Mothering isn't easy. Some days you second-guess every decision. Some nights you fall into bed in a haze of exhaustion. Yet even if you feel alone in the struggle, there are mothers who have been there--right where you are now--and they want you to know you are not alone. That's where The Mother Letters comes in.
The Mother Letters began as a gift of encouragement. After Amber Haines had given birth to three boys in three years, her husband Seth realized the day-to-day details and drama of child rearing were overwhelming her. He secretly began collecting letters from other mothers across the world and gave these "mother letters" to her as a gift.
Amber and Seth have compiled these wise, honest, and sometimes hilarious letters into a beautiful book of hope and encouragement for moms everywhere. Their desire is that these words speak to you as they did to Amber, and that you hear "Me too. We can do this."
MY REVIEW:
This is the book that every mother should have! It is such a little book full of great encouragement!
When your little ones are young and you are wondering if you'll ever get rested again. When you've not handled a situation right or feel like a failure as a mother, this book is going to encourage you! I loved all the different authors and their different perspectives about motherhood, however, one thing was consistent. They all encouraged us to be the best mother to our children we can be but also to have grace for ourselves on those hard days.
The book is so beautiful. It's full of pictures and the pages are glossy. It's very well put together and is so appealing to read. It would make a perfect Mother's Day gift!
I really got a lot of encouragement and wisdom from this book and I highly recommend it.
