She hopes that her writing will relate with other mothers. That moms will know that their experiences are normal. That they will learn to not sweat the small stuff. Buy this book and laugh along with this zany mom! You will be glad that you did. Turning mom at age 43 wasn't her plan, but, GOD'S PLAN FOR HER LIFE! Learn that GOD'S PLANS always dupe your plans. That some children come with disabilities, which is fine. GOD made them that way. He STILL chose you to be the MOM! GOD places the children that he wants with the parents that he wants. IF GOD placed a special needs child with you, embrace it. He trusts you to handle it. PRAY everyday for guidance in raising your child. If you do, and follow GOD'S plan for parenting, all will be well. LAUGH, CRY, TEACH and EMBRACE your CHILDREN. They are GODS little treasures which he has loaned us for awhile.
