Motherhood Matters
​What a good and inspirational reminder of how sacred and precious motherhood is.  This book has many tips and pointers to help mothers realize their importance and the difference they make in the lives of their children.  Motherhood is not always easy and it can sometimes be lonely, but it is a beautiful and precious gift from God.  I would recommend this book to all mothers of any faith that needs a little lift and a reminder that they are important.

The Life is Too Short
What an inspiring and self-motivating book!  The book focuses on three topics—women, wife, and mother.  All three important parts of life.  Each section focuses on ways to become a better woman, wife, and mother.  The “Women” section focuses on the journey of life, whether it is enjoying the journey or setting dreams and goals, as well as creating healthy connections.  The “Wife” section focuses on the differences of men and women, how to meet each other’s needs, and how best to make two people one.  Part three of the book “Mother” discusses reaching for the ideal, patient with the real, helping children grow, and making your children know they are loved.  Connie uses inspiring situations from her own life, showing that like all of us she is human.  I would recommend this book to any woman that is wanting to improve her relationship with herself, her husband, and her children.
