From One Single Mother to Another: Advice and Encouragement from Someone Who's Been There

Rating:
Summary: From One Single Mother to Another (or simply Mom to Mom)
Review: From One Single Mother to Another is written by Sandra P. Aldrich. In the short space of thirteen chapters she describes from the sudden death of her husband up to her children being grown the trials and joys of Christian single parenting. Her writing is down to earth and full of wit and wisom acquired only through experience. It is written one to one. It is written for the single parent, not for an organization. It's intent is to encourage single parents that the task is possible. One thing she taught her children that stood out to me, another single parent, is this: Single parent families are still a family. They are just smaller by the loss of a parent. She also states her pet peeve, that single parent families are "broken homes". She knows from experience that with God's help and lots of personal effort our homes are healed. As a single parent of many years I say a hearty Thank You! to Ms. Aldrich for her frank, compassionate, and sometimes humerous advice for single parents.
