Do people call you strong?


Strong mothers come from all walks of life and often are buried beneath a mountain of the ordinary. Giving up one's first baby for the child's future benefit, adopting a child with challenges, adjusting to a new normal of a young adult struggling with addictions, grieving the death of a child...these are just some of the stories contained within these pages, shared from the hearts of moms and those who love them.


This book was first thought of over half a decade ago, but came to fruition this year as these mothers realized life doesn't get any less busy.


May these reflections, stories, and poems reignite the passion for motherhood in all its seasons.
