Morgan Reece invites you to embrace your messy journey in all its glory and discover the transformative power of ownership. Just like you, Morgan longs to be the best mom her kids could have. Fancy cars and exotic places have never been on her bucket list, but less chaos and more sleep sure have. "How," Morgan wondered, "was my mom so cheerful while I've often been too anxious to rest, too exhausted to smile? What did a single mom in the 70s know about motherhood that kept her sane and happy despite divorce, social ostracism, recessions, and four hungry mouths to feed? How was it even possible?" In Becoming a Smarter Mom, Morgan invites you to discover timeless truths that have been there all along, from Genesis to Revelation, from Aeschylus to Ziglar. A way of seeing that opens your eyes to the extraordinary power of ordinary moments, and a way of choosing that recognizes the potential for joy that lies within each of us. It's only when we have a right view of ourselves and others -- understanding where our responsibilities begin, and where they end -- that we will finally be able to jump off the hamster wheel of perfectionism and enjoy the feast of joy before us. Becoming a Smarter Mom explores seven keys to raising successful children that were handed down to Morgan by her mother. These keys will help you love, guide, protect, and enjoy your children... and do the same for yourself. The seven keys are: Significance: how to really love your child in ways that make them feel important (and how to celebrate your own intrinsic value) Understanding: how to correct children respectfully, influence teens, and what to do when they blow it big time Culture: how to use the power of habit for smoother days to make your house a home (and make better choices) on autopilot Confidence: how to raise successful children by giving them a growth mindset (and how to dream big for yourself) Encouragement: how to raise positive kids and use affirmations and wise words to wire everyone in your home for success -- including yourself Safety: how to protect your child's physical, mental, and spiritual well being and prevent child abuse (and how to stay mentally strong) Self-Acceptance: how to get along with difficult people and love them in spite of our differences (and embrace your own messy journey with compassion and grace) The life lessons are given in short, easy-to-read vignettes because, let's face it, ain't none of us busy moms that's got time for War and Peace. This is not a book to be savored over crumpets and tea. It's a pep talk and a hug for battle-weary soldiers so you can live fully, joyfully, gloriously present in a war zone of mucus, mud, and hormones... it's the perfect book for new moms and seasoned veterans alike. Let Morgan's compassionate, inspiring stories of everyday epiphanies give you a way of seeing beyond your "To Do" list to what matters most, a way of being present with your family that gives you freedom to relax, and a way of living that is ripe for joy. Are you ready to love yourself, your life, and your family, in all their messy glory? You can, by becoming a Smarter Mom!

Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."

Generations of mothers have been told -- and believed -- that having a baby means checking their own brains at the delivery room door. "The Mommy Brain" usually refers to a head full of feeding times, soccer schedules, and nursery rhymes, at the expense of creative or challenging ideas. But recent scientific research paints a dramatically different and far rosier picture. Journalist Katherine Ellison draws on cutting-edge neuroscience research to demonstrate that, contrary to long-established wisdom that having children dumbs you down, raising children may make moms smarter . From enhanced senses in pregnancy and early motherhood to the alertness and memory skills necessary to manage like a pro, to a greater aptitude for risk-taking and a talent for empathy and negotiation, these advantages not only help mothers in raising their children, but in their work and social lives as well. Filled with lively (and often hilarious) stories of multitasking moms at home and on the job, The Mommy Brain encourages all of us to cast aside conventional thinking and discover the positive ways in which having children changes mothers' brains for the better.

I don't know how she does it! is an oft-heard refrain about mothers today. Funnily enough, most moms agree they have no idea how they get it done, or whether they even want the job. Trisha Ashworth and Amy Nobile spoke to mothers of every stripe--working, stay-at-home, part-time--and found a surprisingly similar trend in their interviews. After enthusing about her lucky life for twenty minutes, a mother would then break down and admit that her child's first word was "Shrek." As one mom put it, "Am I happy? The word that describes me best is challenged." Fresh from the front lines of modern motherhood comes a book that uncovers the guilty secrets of moms today . . . in their own words. I Was a Really Good Mom Before I Had Kids diagnoses the craziness and offers real solutions, so that mothers can step out of the madness and learn to love motherhood as much as they love their kids.

Mom is Always Right gathers together the wisest and most memorable words ever said about the women who have held our hands through the obstacle course of life. At turns heartwarming and inspiring, humorous and profound, this little gem of a book makes the perfect gift for any mother or grandmother.
