mom connection: creating vibrant relationships in the midst of motherhood (review & giveaway!)


My first Mother's Day.....

A day to celebrate mothers, grandmothers, aunts and anyone who "mothers".  Mother's Day was not officially recognized in the United States until 1914.  Flowers, greeting cards and many gifts fly off the shelves and many come together to worship on this special Sunday morning.  My amazing husband took us to the beach for a short, but MUCH appreciate trip!

Recently I was privedlged enough to partcipate in MOPS International Blogger Book Tour.  The book is Mom Connection: Creating Vibrant Relationships in the Midst of Motherhood by Tracey Bianchi.  Being a mom for a very short (and fast) 4 months hit home!  Bianchi provides an honest, down to earth look at motherhood.  There is no sugar coating.

Bianchi puts major emphasis on relationships with other mothers.  These relationships she refers to as "partners for the journey".  Bianchi states "this book is about living into life's rhythm so we can connect and create vibrant relationships as moms".  Bianchi makes you feel that there is truly life beyond dirty diapers, feedings, laundry and dishes!  Another favorite: Bianchi includes "Five Mom-Tested Tips" at the end of each chapter to jump start your thoughts. 

I was very pleased with this book and I look forward to sharing a copy with one lucky blog viewer!
