Synopsis

The role of mom is often described as the most important job in the world. Rightly so, for so much is at stake during children's early years and moms are central in shaping character and personhood. However, when the going gets tough (the endless diapers, the continual messes, the endless conflict resolution, the complete lack of personal time, etc.), moms are often tempted to quit their "mom-job." While few would endorse an outright abandonment of motherhood, others may recommend that a woman treat her role as secondary to personal desires in order to combat feelings of discouragement and/or unfulfillment. The enemy has laid intentional traps cleverly designed to discourage and redirect a woman towards self rather than family. Moms need to know how to recognize these traps . . . and avoid them. Be the Mom: Overcome Attitude Traps and Enjoy Your Kids explores and validates the life of a mom who makes her family a priority and introduces the reader to seven Mom Traps that may be preventing them from a full, joy-filled life.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Do you ever feel like motherhood is a cycle of never-ending tasks that go unnoticed and unappreciated? If so, you're not alone. While being a mom is one of the most important, rewarding jobs you could ever have, it can also be tiring and emotionally draining. In Be the Mom, Tracey Eyster describes seven "mom traps" that moms often fall into, and step-by-step, she provides advice for avoiding and escaping these traps in your own life. Tracey's delightful, down-to-earth style will make you smile, equip you with the tools you need, and remind you what being the mom is all about.

Tracey Eyster is the creator/editor of MomLifeToday.com, a website where she has gathered a diverse group of moms who are as fervent as she is about equipping others to thrive in their daily MomLife. Tracey and her husband, Bill, live with their teens, Samara and Westley, on a ranchette in rural Arkansas.
