There is a quote that says “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” It sounds brave and amazing. But honestly, who walks through life expecting lemons? If anything, we hope for the roses and the daisies! No one wants to journey through trials or hardships. Especially when you welcome the most exciting and anticipated news of your life! You have dreamt of this very moment. You have hoped and prayed for it! You finally got it. But then, things start to unravel! Challenges which were not foreseen. Although you are not obvious to the uncertainties of life, you still expect this fulfilled desire to be perfect and beautiful. You expect it to be...unchallenged! However, you find yourself through a cascade of trials which seem to never end. When you think you finally catch your breath, the waves of this immense sea of trials come and swallow you up. Will you survive? or Will you drown...physically... or emotionally...or both? And if you survive, what will it even look like? In Surrendered Motherhood, you are invited on an incredible pilgrimage filled with unexpected trials and challenges. What was supposed to be the most joyful time in this author’s life, turned into a tunnel with one light bulb going out one at a time! While the author tries to hold on dearly to her faith, would she survive? Would she swim above the waters? But more importantly, would her faith remain true to her?

Surrendered Child is Karen Salyer McElmurray's raw, poignant account of her journey from her teen years, when she put her newborn child up for adoption, to adulthood and a desperate search for the son she never knew. In a patchwork narrative interwoven with dark memories from her childhood, McElmurray deftly treads where few dare—into a gritty, honest exploration of the loss a birth mother experiences. The year was 1973, a time of social upheaval, even in small-town Kentucky, where McElmurray grew up. More than a story of time and place, however, this is about a girl who, at the age of sixteen, relinquished her son at birth. Twenty-five years would pass before McElmurray began sharing this part of her past with others and actively looking for her son. McElmurray's own troubled upbringing and her quest after a now-fully-grown son are the heart of her story. With unflinching honesty, McElmurray recounts both the painful surrendering and the surprise rediscovery of her son, juxtaposed with her portrayal of her own mother, who could not provide the love she needed. The dramatic result is a story of birthright lost and found—and an exploration of the meaning of motherhood itself.

We must surrender our motherhood to the One who never fails—even though we often fail. Motherhood is a gift. It’s beautiful and meaningful work. But raising imperfect humans can also be exhausting and leave you depleted. Social media has only increased the pressure to look good and be the perfect mom. But what is a “good” mom? And why does it seem like the lives of others are shinier and easier than yours? Fellow mom and friend Hallie Dye understands the motivation to be a mom who never fails (yet feels like she’s always failing). In You’re Still a Good Mom, Hallie dismantles our faulty expectations of motherhood and replaces them with an understanding of who you are in Christ and who He calls you to be. Raising kids brings out our weaknesses. You can feel as though no matter how hard you try, you’re not the mom you imagined you'd be. Hallie shows the way of surrendering motherhood. Through real life stories and a biblical foundation, readers learn how to navigate failures so that they can raise children who see their need for a good and perfect Savior. Writing on truth, compassion, grief, grace, dreams, and much more, the author speaks to moms right where they’re at. You will find real hope in what God defines as faithful and good and be robustly affirmed that You’re Still a Good Mom.

Learn the “who,” “what,” and “why” of unbecoming a mother In a society where becoming a mother is naturalized, “unbecoming” a mother—the process of coming to live apart from biological children—is regarded as unnatural, improper, or even contemptible. Few mothers are more stigmatized than those who are perceived as having given up, surrendered, or abandoned their birth children. Unbecoming Mothers: The Social Production of Maternal Absence examines this phenomenon within the social and historical context of parenting in Canada, Australia, Britain, and the United States, with critical observations from social workers, policymakers, and historians. This unique book offers insights from the perspectives of children on the outside looking in and the lived experiences of women on the inside looking out. Unbecoming Mothers: The Social Production of Maternal Absence explores how gender, race, class, and other social agents affect the ways women negotiate their lives apart from their children and how they attempt to recreate their identities and family structures. An interdisciplinary, international collection of academics, community workers, and mothers draws upon sources as diverse as archival records, a therapist’s interview, a dance script, and the class presentation of a student to offer refreshing insights on maternal absence that are innovative, accessible, and inspiring. Unbecoming Mothers examines five assumptions about maternal absence and the families that emerge from that absence: the focus on parenting as highly gendered caring work done by women the idea that women share the same experience of unbecoming mothers and share the same circumstances and background the perception of maternal absence as a recent phenomenon the notion that women who want to manage their mother-work will make choices to overcome life’s obstacles the Western concept of womanhood being achieved through motherhood and the unrealistic ideal of the “good mother” Unbecoming Mothers: The Social Production of Maternal Absence is a rich, multidisciplinary resource for academics working in women’s studies, psychology, sociology, history, and any health-related fields, and for policymakers, social workers, and other community workers.

With an Expanded Appendix on the Current Legal Status of Surrogacy Arrangements A practice known since Biblical times, surrogate motherhood has only recently leaped to prominence as a way of providing babies for childless couples—and leaped to notoriety through the dramatic case of Baby M. Contract surrogacy is officially little more than ten years old, but by 1986 five hundred babies had been born to mothers who gave them up to sperm donor fathers for a fee, and the practice is growing rapidly. Martha Field examines the myriad legal complexities that today enmesh surrogate motherhood, and also looks beyond existing legal rules to ask what society wants from surrogacy. A man’s desire to be a “biological” parent even when his wife is infertile—the father’s wife usually adopts the child—has led to this new kind of family, and modern technology could further extend surrogacy’s appeal by making gestational surrogates available to couples who provide both egg and sperm. But is surrogacy a form of babyselling? Is the practice a private matter covered by contract law, or does adoption law govern? Is it good or bad social and public policy to leave surrogacy unregulated? Should the law allow, encourage, discourage, or prohibit surrogate motherhood? Ultimately the answers will depend on what the American public wants. In the difficult process of sorting out such vexing questions, Martha Field has written a landmark book. Showing that the problem is rather too much applicable law than too little, she discusses contract law and constitutional law, custody and adoption law, and the rights of biological fathers as well as the laws governing sperm donation. Competing values are involved all along the legal and social spectrum. Field suggests that a federal prohibition would be most effective if banning surrogacy is the aim, but federal prohibition might not be chosen for a variety of reasons: a preference for regulating surrogacy instead of driving it underground; a preference for allowing regulation and variation by state; or a respect for the interests of people who want to enter surrogacy arrangements. Since the law can support a wide variety of positions, Field offers one that seems best to reconcile the competing values at stake. Whether or not paid surrogacy is made illegal, she suggests that a surrogate mother retain the option of abiding by or canceling the contract up to the time she freely gives the child to the adopting couple. And if she cancels the contract, she should be entitled to custody without having to prove in court that she would be a better parent than the father.

Becoming a mother is one of the biggest transitions a woman will face in her lifetime. As she births new life, she also births a whole new identity. In rediscovering who she is, she often loses herself completely in the service of others. This can leave mothers feeling lost, alone and overwhelmed. Motherhood Diaries inspires mothers everywhere to beautifully serve themselves just as they serve others. It reminds moms that self-love is as vital as the oxygen they breathe, is the gateway to their inner brilliance and the biggest gift they can give their children. It will empower mothers to make self-love a priority, so that they are much more able to navigate the beautiful and messy journey of motherhood. Mothers, whether expecting, new, or seasoned want to be the best possible mother, raising incredible human beings that make a positive difference in the world. This book inspires mothers to raise their children to be their brightest light in this world, by being that themselves. In Motherhood Diaries, mothers will learn practical strategies for: • implementing self-love practices and affirmations into busy mom life • showing themselves compassion, becoming more present, resilient and connected within • loving and accepting all the healed and unhealed parts of themselves • surrendering in faith over fear to become a magnet for miracles Eleven mothers share their powerful stories of how they turned their pain into purpose and broke open to their own light through learning to love and care for themselves. In serving from a place of completion rather than depletion, these mothers have become a force of deep love, peace, joy and compassion. It is their deepest hope that in sharing their truth, mothers will find their way back home to their own. A message for mothers: “You are beautiful and complete, just as you are. You are already doing an incredible job as you are innately led by love. Remember that no matter how sleep-deprived, messy, or challenging things may seem, the pure LOVE that exists in your heart is the compass to your soul. As you connect more deeply to your inner voice, it will guide you at every turn. It will give you the answers you need to navigate the adventure of motherhood.”
