“Laugh with us, cry with us, pull
your hair out with us, and enjoy the candid stories of two sleep-deprived,
coffee-filled, almost gripped-with-insanity, but perfectly imperfect
moms!”
Great
news! Even though your family had pizza for dinner three times this week,
you ran over the diaper bag, you forgot to pack your Kindergartener’s lunch,
you haven’t exercised in weeks, and your toddler flushed your toothbrush down
the toilet and threw the biggest fit in the grocery store anyone ever saw, you
can still be considered for the parent-of-the-year award! (Well,
not really, but only because there is no such thing.) As
fellow moms, we sisters are here to tell you there will be days your kids don’t
follow the manuals they came with. (Oh, wait, THOSE don’t
exist either!)
We parents often measure our success
according to the goal of being perfect in every area of life, including
the condition of our house, our baking talent, never forgetting anything
important EVER (despite our hundreds of sticky-note reminders), and the flawless
behavior of our children in every social situation. But, what if our
feeling of failure is simply…misguided? It’s time to put down the
mom-guilt “bat” we often beat ourselves up with and embrace our imperfections.
This book is a collection of stories and a series of challenges that will help
you realize that, although you are imperfect, you can still be the perfect
parent your kid needs.
