I have recently finished a great book for moms titled, Taking Care of the Me in Mommy by Lisa Whelchel (remember Blair on "The Facts of Life"?). I have read a couple of her books before and really enjoy her writing.
This book is easy to pick up and put down for those short reading times. She covers some great topics of Mommy-hood in the 5 parts of the book: Taking Care of Your Spirit, Taking Care of Your Body, Taking Care of Your Soul, Finding Time for Yourself, and Finding Time for Each Other. In each part Lisa shares a part of her story and what she has learned but the best part of each section is the "Rest Stops". These are ideas for implementing something into your life that addresses the situation. Everything from working hobbies into your life to daily Bible reading tips.
The book is a little older (2006) so some of the web addresses have expired and some ideas are very "Southern Baptist" but all in all, I loved it! I bought my copy on the bargain book rack at Lifeway for $5. Definitely worth it!!!
