I loved this book! I think it is an authentic, relatable take on motherhood. I really enjoyed that it made commentary and had discussion about the whole process of starting a family from the EARLIEST parts, to include trying (and maybe struggling) to conceive and early feelings about pregnancy, to the latest parts, like having young children/toddlers, splitting responsibilities with a spouse, finding childcare, and learning and understanding more about your identity as a person v.s. as a mother. I teared up at several parts, and I really loved this as a short, somewhat playful, but also very meaningful take on starting a family! I think I will purchase this as a gift for some of my friends who perfectly fit this audience.
