Ready to laugh about motherhood and be encouraged? Tired of feeling overwhelmed and stressed out in the baby and toddler season? Need some fresh vision and perspective so you can enjoy not just endure your young children? "Stop and Smell Your Children: Laugh and Enjoy the Little Years" offers moms-to-be and moms of young children short, real-life parenting stories that encourage and inspire. Leah Spina, mother of three children ages five and under, and former journalist, unleashes humor and perspective for tired moms who are parenting the little years. From the excitement of the positive pregnancy test to morning sickness and the banes of pregnancy, to childbirth, babies, toddlers and new parent struggles, the stories will make you laugh and see beauty in the chaos. Each story also includes thought-provoking takeaways to help busy moms gain a fresh outlook. Strangers remind us that our children will be small only for a short time and to enjoy each moment. But then we return to the wild reality of parenting young children! All-night crying sessions. Never-ending laundry. Every-three-hour feeding schedules. Diaper explosions and projectile spit-up. Teething. Potty training. Yes, we enjoy our children, but we d also like to enjoy a shower that lasts more than two minutes, or a meal that isn t lukewarm (if we re lucky). The truth is, pregnancy and parenting young childrencan be hard at times. But it can also be one of the best chapters of our lives, if we can learn to laugh and change our mindset. Young children are one of life s greatest gifts. Each page of this easy read will help you truly enjoy the little years!"
