Book Review by Bree Herron
Motherhood can be one of God’s greatest joys for a woman. It can always be the biggest sadness in the cases of those trying or struggling to conceive. I first of all want to acknowledge that all women are beautiful and to have faith in God. In this book I found stories that aligned with mine, and those that opened my heart to perspectives that were unknown to me.
One thing that I am taking away from this collection is that there are so many ways to be a mom. They may not always be the common way but through the past 21 days I learned that when give the opportunity to parent and love children women can do it all. I really admired the stories of women stepping up as step parents, this is tough and can be a struggle for many. I hope that the stories in this collection will touch your heart in the way it touched mine.
How do you celebrate your mom or being a mom?
