Genre: Christian, Nonfiction, Devotional, Motherhood, Parenting, Toddlers, Spiritual
Plot: In the crazy busy days of newborns, diaper changes, breastfeeding, crawling, teetering first steps, endless snacks, more diaper changes, potty training and temper tantrums, it can be very easy to forget to do simple things like brush our teeth and read our Bibles. This handy little devotional takes into account our limited time, attention spans and attention spans of our tiny charges to deliver small bite-sized bits of encouragement and spiritual comfort. With a little something for everyone in here, this devotional is a wonderful thing to have on our shelves and to gift to every mom we know who has her hands full with raising tiny people.
Add in a mini bottle of wine and maybe some dark chocolate or tea and this becomes a wonderful little gift bundle.
Likes/Dislikes: While I enjoyed this book and loved the short entries and overall theme of encouragement, I felt that some of the entries were a bit guilt-trippy and others were very repetitive on the subjects of rest, doing literally everything to raise godly babies (when most of us are probably just trying to get them to stop peeing in their pants and eat their dinner), and a couple others. Overall, cute and I intend to get a copy for my expectant sister. Just not my personal cup of tea.
Rating: G-all ages, geared mainly toward moms.
