In your mothering journey, which books from children's classic literature do you turn to for help?
That one made me stop and think for a while. Of course, there are plenty of “how to” books for mothering. However, I had never considered looking back at my childhood stories... until now!
As moms, we face so many struggles and fears. Is what we're doing enough? How will our kids turn out? As we face these fears, we wonder what we can do.
My guest on this episode is Jennifer Pepito, a writer, and mother of seven! Despite her desire to raise a strong family, fear stole her joy as a mother.
Likewise, she has asked herself whether what she was doing was the right thing for her children.
Then, she discovered her joy in an unexpected place! It was in the pages of classic literature that she read aloud to her children every day.
Through these stories, she restored the wonder of childhood to both herself and her children.
As Jennifer explains in her book, Mothering by the Book, we can use those lessons to overcome our fears.
Jennifer will share lessons from three of my favorite classics:
"Becoming a better, happier mom starts with the stories you tell your kids.”
