From teaching us how to tie our shoes and guiding us through that first day of school, to lending an empathetic ear and being our pillars of strength and support, our mums have been our chief counselors, cheerleaders, critics, chauffeurs,and chefs. FOR THE LOVE OF MOM pays homage to these special women, the women who have rocked us, raised us, championed us, challenged us, and--at times--exasperated us.
Whether a woman becomes a mom by chance or by choice, through giving birth, or through the blessings of adoption or stepparenting, she will be moved, inspired, and entertained by these true stories that share both the monumental milestones and everyday moments of motherhood. Some are humorous, some heartfelt; others will help moms through the trying times, yet all underscore the devotion and dedication we admire most about mothers.
While the experience of motherhood is different for every woman, one thing is universal: it is almost impossible to fathom the myriad of joys and triumphs encountered on the journey. FOR THE LOVE OF MOM celebrates moms and the uniquely important roles they play in our lives.
