WHAT KIDS NEED MOST IN A MOM

As you anticipated motherhood, did you have great expectations about the kind of mother you would be? perhaps the reality has fallen short of your dreams. If so, take heart: Patricia H. Rushford offers encouragement and help for being the loving mom your kids need most. 

With humour and hope, Rushford, a mother and grandmother, shares poignant anecdotes and practical advice from over thirty years of experience. You won't find magic formulae for becoming a "supermom" or a perfect mother in these pages. Instead, you'll learn to evaluate what's really important in life and find creative ideas for sharing your discoveries with your children. You'll begin to focus on such essentials as:

• trusting your life- and your kids - to God's care 
• instilling forgiveness in your children 
• getting out the "guilt" factory 
• celebrating life
• growing with your children

This book will help you enjoy the exhilarating, exhausting, and rewarding adventure of being a mom. Whether you're a new mom, a grandmother, or somewhere in between, you'll find encouragement to be a real mom who is content to make the most of the love, talents, responsibilities, gifts, and frailties God has given you.
