Rating: Summary: Pictures and thoughts of moms in a beautiful book Review: When you read this book, it's like you get to peek in through a keyhole and see real moms full of courage with real kids who depend on her in everyday events: secure ones, hard ones, messy ones, silly ones. You even get to hear what the mom is thinking.... and come away stronger, more full of courage yourself. The pictures are stunning, unposed, full of life. As a mom-to-be, I got this book as a gift to my mom to say thanks for all she's done for me. I read through the book before giving it to her and found myself crying and laughing, but becoming stronger with each turned page. One of my favorite pictures is a black and white one on page 22. It's one of a little boy, touching his mom's nose as they play in a sandbox. Above it is this thought from a mom in Philadelphia: "God miraculously sends the right child to the right mother. Nick and I like to count through all his cousins and friends and marvel that they all ended up with just the reight mothers..and how glad he is to have ended up with me!"
