Mothering is an adventure to be sure--from diaper changes and
potty training to car pools and soccer games, a mom's life is full
of adventures with her children. But it's not only about the kids.
Mothering is also an adventure in personal growth. And that's what

Diaries.
With contributions from a variety of authors and speakers familiar

personal growth as a mom, The Mommy Diaries points moms to

experiences.
Guess what--it's not just about the kids.
