"The connectedness I felt to each mom as I made my way through the pouring out of their hearts was so natural and powerful." -Krista Ward, @KissesFromBoys
"We all struggle with how to raise unique boys in an effort to grow them into respectable, productive men. The perspectives of the contributors to this book are honest, encouraging, and enlightening. Well worth reading!"
What does it mean to be a modern-day Boy Mom?
Kara Forney (founder of The Bump) attempts to shed light on today's Boy Mom experience through a collection of essays written by moms that speaks to the unexpected joys, challenges, and overall significance of raising boys.
Boy Moms: Collective Tales of Mothers and Sons explores the behind-the-scenes of raising sons who challenge preconceived notions. Who teach you about love in a way you didn't anticipate. Who open your eyes to unforeseen magic. Who unexpectedly change the way you see the world...and yourself.
As this heartwarming collection demonstrates, regardless of what society has long told us to expect when it comes to being a mom of boys, the reality is often quite opposite our expectations.
And more often than not, it's an adventure filled with exquisite moments of insight and joy we never could have anticipated.
"A great gift for every Boy Mom (or expectant Boy Mom)!"
