Most days motherhood often looks like bottomless piles of laundry; a sink full of dishes; sleepless nights; and unshowered, nonstop, endless days. If that’s all there is, then no wonder “Grumpy Mom” sometimes sneaks into your heart and home.
If you can relate, you’re in good company—Valerie Woerner gets it and has experienced Grumpy Mom more often than she’d care to admit. In Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday, Valerie shares what she’s learned so far about sending Grumpy Mom packing and embracing a joyful, intentional motherhood that is so much better than you thought possible.
As you journey with Valerie, you’ll be inspired and equipped to find energy in the most unlikely places, pursue your own dreams, be set free from mom guilt, feel content despite unfinished to-do lists, spend purposeful time with God amid the daily chaos, and discover more joyous moments of motherhood.
So, take a holiday from Grumpy Mom, and enjoy life as the mom God made you to be.
My thoughts:
This has been a book I am reading slowly. I have caught myself several times rereading a paragraph and letting it "soak in."
I have those moments when I feel like "Grumpy Mom." The things the author writes about are many of the same experiences or thoughts I have had myself. She writes so readers can relate and know that she understands where you are coming from.
As Moms we face these difficult situations on a daily basis...how do we respond in these moments? Do you know how to look for the joy in the situation? This book will help change your perspective and challenge you if you have those days when you are "Grumpy Mom."

I'm glad I had a chance to review this book. It would make a nice gift for yourself for Mother's Day!
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the Tyndale Blog Network for my honest review. Thank you.
Have a day of blessings!
