GIVEAWAYS! It’s HOODWINKED Launch Day!
Psst…
want to know the secret for being a great mom?
Think she keeps house like June Cleaver, cooks like a Food Network star, and actually does all of the things she pins to her Pinterest boards? Oh…and all while calmly raising her kids without ever raising her voice? Yeah….right.
Today is release day for my new book for moms: Hoodwinked: Ten Myths Moms Believe & Why We All Need to Knock It Off!
Ruth Schwenk and I have had ENOUGH of the misconceptions of motherhood!!!
Myths such as: “The way I mother is the right (and only) way,” “Motherhood is natural, easy, and instinctive,” or “My child’s bad choice means I’m a bad mom.” These myths leave moms hoodwinked, and sometimes even heartbroken.
This encouraging, “we’ve been there” book will enable mothers to:
-Identify the ten myths of motherhood
-Replace the lies with the truth of what God says
-Forge healthy, supportive relationships with other moms of all ages and stages
-Confidently embrace the calling of motherhood as they care for their families in their own unique way
Ultimately, Hoodwinked equips mothers to stop searching for the secret and develop and embrace their relationships instead- with their kids, other mothers, and most importantly, with God.
Tweet ThisThere is lots going on today to celebrate our launch {giveaways below including an aqua Kitchen Aid mixer!!!!} I hope you’ll join Ruth and me on Blab for some weekly conversations.

I love having the chance to raise my kids and teach them about Jesus.
When the kids were small, I loved getting those sweet, from the heart, homemade Mother’s Day/Christmas gifts. Don’t get those anymore, but still my favorite thing is hearing ‘I love you’.
My favorite thing about being a mom is watching my 4 beautiful children grow into the young women and young men that God has called them to be. I love spending time with them and doing things that make them happy. I absolutely love being a mom!
So many to I love about being a mom. Watching them learn, encouraging moms of littles that those times, seemingly endless, really are fleeting. When the brain development kicks in and they grasp reading, other concepts.
One thing i love about being a mom is that has made me think about and put others before myself. Another thing is that it has made me appreciate my mom and all that she did and does for me and all the sacrifices she made and makes. i am very blessed that i have a wonderful example in my mom and that the LORD has put me in her life and that He allowed me to be a mom!
Love the new season of being a mom to two teens. Exciting and challenging! The book looks great.
What I love most about being a mom is the amazing relationship I have with each of my children. They are each unique blessings that God has given us, and I cannot imagine a life without them.
Ordered by book!! Looking forward to the book club!
This is a message that God has been whispering to my heart for about a year now. I love being the one my kids come to when they need comfort, help or just a hug.
I love cuddles and open dialogue. I’ve really tried to leave the door open and let them know whatever it is, it will be okay and I will always love them. There is always a place at my side or in my arms. I also do the Phil. 4:13 and Jer. 29:11
What I love being a mom is seeing accomplishments from the time they were born and growing up….seasons of life are a struggle for everyone, but it is amazing who they become! We have seven children(2 sets of twins) ages 17, 14, 12, 10, 10, 4, 4. We have a long way to go! Since we homeschool it has been a pleasure to be there with every milestone they have taken. God has truly blessed us.
I love being a mom to my two young daughters. I love that in so many ways they are alike but in so many ways they are different too. They are a joy to not just my husband and I but to our parents as well. I am so blessed and honored to be their mama.
I have always struggled with knowing what is expected of me as a mother. I am definitely going to buy this book!
I love watching my five children grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, seeing them grasp new concepts, and just their loving natures shine.
I love that no day is ever the same!
I love seeing my little boy grow, discover, and learn new things every day. The twinkle in his eyes and the huge smile that spreads across his face when he discovers something new melts my heart.
I love being a mom because not only do I teach them but they continue to mold and shape me. If anyone can bring out my ugly spots it’s my children. Jesus uses them to point out things I need to heal or bring to him. I love being a mom because they make me rely on Jesus more and that deepens my relationship with them.
I love spending time with my kids, watching them grow, seeing the innocence and curiosity in everything that they do.
I love spending time with my kids and watching them learn and grow and experience life
That I was able to nurture & pour into five lil lives and themany lives that will be affected by that simple calling! ~
I can’t wait for my book to get here. So excited.
Thank you for writing a book for us Moms in all stages of children.
I feel so blessed to be a mom when my daughter does or says something so beyond her years that I can’t help but LEARN FROM HER instead of being the teacher…and she’s only 2! Children don’t let anything stand in their way of LOVE!
The best part of being a mom is watching and being involved with your children’s children and learning and living God’s Word together?
Didn’t know a happy face turns to a ? mark, oops
Love when the daughter surprises me by doing or saying something so smart and beyond her years that I can’t help but LEARN FROM HER instead of the other way around…and she’s only two! Children sure know how to love unconditionally!
