Things I Wish I'd Known Sooner: Personal Discoveries of a Mother of Twelve

Summary: Like coffee w/ a friend who's "been there."
Review: Sorry, Library Journal, but I think your review on this one is all wet! I loved this book and found it a great encouragement as I struggled to adjust to life at home with kids after years in the career track. Okay, so it's not loaded with how-to advice, but it IS loaded with stories that help moms remember and focus on what's really important. Today, I'm buying it as a gift for a new mom. I've loaned it to several friends, and every one has ended up buying her own copy because it's the kind of book you want to return to again and again.
