This is a comical real life, no filter telling of a mom surviving the insanity of family life. It takes more than studies, facts, and 'how to' advice on structure and discipline to raise a family. There are parents on the verge of pulling their hair out and ready for a book that reaches to the very core of understanding parenting insanity. Here is a book that will get them through their trials and tribulations, teaching them the need to 'lean on humor' through their own journey. This book is a written and illustrated journey through 2016 told from a mother's perspective, with crass anecdotal journal entries, 21 unique parenting tips, and focuses on raising three children, ages ranging from 8-13 years old, while maintaining a not-so-fairytale, but very comedic and loving relationship with her husband. This book solidly uses real life scenarios to draw encouragement and perspective from.
