Momumental was so encouraging to me as a mom. Jennifer Grant offers solid advice, not just on parenting but on how to be intentional about building a family culture. She writes honestly about her own mistakes, her own perfectionism, and how her own family of origin impacted her. She also tells beautiful stories about her family that made me laugh and cry. I’m recommending this book who anyone who is raising children—which is a messy but beautiful art.kerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17110763504743646077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574217133769042898.post-24887644832638007592012-05-17T19:26:52.449-07:002012-05-17T19:26:52.449-07:00@Melanie: So cool!

We are farming and have 6 kids, so thought it would be fun to follow your crazyiness. I am reviewing Momumental later this week! Good to 'meet' you.
