The Messy Truth About Motherhood

De: Mary Katherine Backstrom, Meredith Masony - foreword

Narrado por: Mary Katherine Backstrom

Hope, humor, and spiritual inspiration to families in the trenches of parenthood from the founder of Mom Babble.

Mary Katherine Backstrom spends her days mending booboos, conquering the boogie man, comforting heartaches, laughing at knock-knock jokes, cooking pancakes, throwing baseballs, and mopping muddy floors. In other words she spends her days relishing in the beautiful, constant noise that is a life with children.

In Mom Babble, Mary Katherine (MK) Backstrom, founder and personality behind the Mom Babble online community, offers up hope, humor, and spiritual inspiration to families in the trenches of parenthood. With laughter, crying, and eye-rolls, MK's oh-so-real essays about raising littles will delight all the not perfect, not always holy, not completely normal, messy, honest and wonderful moms that hear them. MK's conversational approach connects with listeners like dear friends cozied up on a coffee date.

Great job!

This might be the first review I’ve ever written. I enjoyed this book. I think she did excellent job of narrating . I wish I would have had someone to encourage me when I was raising my children. I will take with me the reminder to give a gentle you’ve got this, When I see a mama struggle. God bless you MK! Keep up the good work

The Imagery MK Creates is Phenomenal!

Hooray for MK! Y'all I finished this entire book in just a few short hours because it flows so satisfactorily from one essay to the next. As a mother of 3 beautiful daughters - one slightly feral- I found myself reminded of truths I already live by and enlightened and encouraged by others. The imagery MK creates with her words is phenomenal! One essay has you in tears, while the next has you laughing out loud! And it is all stitched together like a quilt made lovingly by a skilled quilters hands. Once you start reading/listening, it is very hard to stop in order to handle things, such as housework, and, well, life in general.

Delicious

This was a wonderful book and a delightful narrator! Way to go, MK! Thank you!

Motherhood to a tee!

Mary Katherine captures motherhood perfectly! We all have our ups and downs but wouldn’t trade it for the world! This book brings the joys and heartache of motherhood together while addressing very real things we all go through but don’t talk about! Can’t wait to see what MK publishes next!

Absolutely loved it!!

I absolutely loved it! I laughed. I cried. I felt all the feels. I love MK! She's an amazing soul in this dark world!!

This is a must read for all moms.

I loved this book so much . I laughed, I cried and then laughed some more. Mk is so relatable . So many of the scenarios she has written are very similar to things I’ve gone through with my own kids. She has a way of explaining a thought or a experience that you feel like your talking to a friend. This is a great read.

For all the moms out there!
