Mothers are a Tough Bunch
L.J. Charleston has provided a dictionary/encyclopedia for understanding the great variety of mothers that exist today. I am a mother of 6 and grandmother of 3 who has worked with many types of mothers in dance, sports, church nursery, Sunday School, and home school groups. Having dealt with parents as a teacher and as a peer, I can say this guide is spot on! Are you part of The Mommy Mafia?
Meet ER Mom, Dictator Mom, Drop-Off Mom (the one the rest of us hate for defying rules of carpool decency) and Olympic Mom, along with many others. This is a fun book to read, as you will find yourself attaching names and faces to each of these mothers. I know I did. My own name goes in front of a few of the titles, to be honest.
Enjoy a lighthearted look at mothering. Perhaps even notice some areas where you have gone a bit overboard and need to back up.
Check out the official book website and take part of your busy days to read.
