When I first heard the theme for Next year in MOPS 2009-2010...I laughed and wondered how it would all come together. I didn't think that was good topic, to be it sounded like they were going all Green on me..I didn't sound like my cup of tea...I wasn't too sure if I wanted to do next year.
I got this book around Mothers day and I ended up liking the book. It was quick fast read and I enjoyed how it was all laid out through all the chapters.
After reading the book Life on Planet MOM . It had many resources to help a mom out. I loved how it starts with the family and then goes to community and global. I loved the questions after each chapter and I loved that it recapped all the chapters. I didn't like the opening stories because I couldn't relate to them but I understood the point they were trying to get across.
This reminded me of other books from MOPS like What Every mom needs and Breathe. Which I own...but this book seemed more relevant to me now..I liked the comments from real moms sprinkled through out the book.
This line meant something to me:
You were meant to have relationships, filled with joy and depth and meaning-- something you want to model for your children.right? its important this relationship thing. Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, quiet, loud, everyone craves connection to know that we're not alone.pg.181
Julie, this is a great comment from that book. Makes me kinda sad and glad at the same time. Thanks for the review.
