Do you ever feel like you are failing? Or overwhelmed as a mother? 


Wondering if your house is the only one with the pile of shoes by the entryway and a big stack of dishes in the sink?

Does Pinterest and the highlight reel of a hypothetical perfect life feel like too much?

Do you just need a reminder that what you are doing in the midst of motherhood really matters?

If so, you’re not alone.

About the Book

These 21 Dear Mom Letters have reached over a million readers in the year since they’ve been published. They resonate with moms because they are real – authentic – encouraging – and leave you, the mother, remembering the true value of motherhood. They don’t sugar coat the challenges, but they also don’t leave you sitting in not knowing what to do.

They’re like a dose of motherhood caffeine – pushing you to stand up, to brush yourself off, and to celebrate the moments in life.

These letter inspire. They encourage. They remind you, the mother in the midst of the journey, that you are doing amazing things in the ordinary.
