Rating:  Summary: Hilarious and Uplifting Review: I didn't get far in Espinoza's book before I laughed out loud. She has a knack for taking a mom's everyday challenges and turning them into fodder for hilarious, uplifting stories. I especially like her comment about the mountains of clothes that moms encounter daily: "It dawned on me at some point that the only way I'll ever get my laundry caught up is if my family spends two days in the nude." Her deft, light touch with both spiritual application and scriptures make this a good book to give to "seekers" and other moms who might not venture in a Christian bookstore.
Rating:  Summary: Hysterically Funny and Close to Home Review: I got my copy of The Days of Whine and Noses and gave up precious mommy sleep to finish it all into the wee hours of the morning. I laughed, snorted out loud in hysteria and nodded in such sympathetic understanding. Knee deep in my own days of whine and noses,this was a bridge over the Barbie shoes, dirty baby wipes and animal cracker crumbs. Keep it up, Lisa!

Her stories are ones all moms can relate to, appreciate, and laugh over! No one else understands moms like other moms do - All moms will relish that feeling of being understood; Johnson shows us she possesss that great understanding through all her hilarious experiences. At the end of the book I felt disappointed there were no more stories! I look forward to a sequel.
