Not So Perfect Mom: Learning To Embrace What Matters Most

Written by Amy Rienow

Narrated by Amy Rienow

If your list of "I should be a mom who . . ." feels endless, this book is for you. Many moms feel the pressure and guilt that comes from chasing perfection. The drive for perfection has a significant effect on the relationships moms are trying to nurture in their homes. Amy Rienow offers encouragement and hope to build healthy relationships and feel joy. She writes like a friend reminding moms to embrace each day to make a real heart-connection with their children. Amy's experience as a counselor and mother of seven (and grandmother of two) shines through with honest and practical parenting advice from a biblical perspective.

Each chapter ends with a Mom Mission statement that guides the readers to a solid action plan to choose new thoughts on parenting and let go of old mind-sets. The ultimate goal is a renewed joy in your relationship with God and in your calling as a mother.
