These books make great gifts for moms of all ages and stages, even moms-to-be. My story is on Page 355, and I believe it'll make you smile. It's called "Magical Mirth," and it starts like this:

"It was a rainy evening in December. School was out for the holidays, and after a long day of shopping, my six-year-old daughter was wound tighter than a top. Seeking solitude from her silliness, I put on a pot of coffee and retired to the den."
What happened next had us both in the floor laughing til we cried. Precious memories. How they linger.
Happy weekend to you all. Join me at Spiritual Sundays, where good people blog about good things.

No doubt, that book will be a best seller. I love the Chicken Soup for the Soul series.

ReplyDeleteNow, I have to get the book. It will make me quite proud, I have to say, to be able to point to your story and tell people that I know you.
ReplyDeleteI can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to see your name in print and know that your words were published and blessing others.
I hope they're in books a million.
That's the only local bookstore we have.
Sorry to be so late with these congrats, BTW. I had a whirlwind of a weekend. That pesky life... getting in the way of the computer. Grin.
