This book helped me get through the hard times in my life when my mom was in the hospital. It had uplifting short stories related to the author's life. It definitely cheers you up and gives you a new perspective on things. A few of my favorite quotes from the book:

" Friendship is an opportunity to act on God's behalf in the lives of the people that we're close to, reminding each other who God is." p49

" Family gets made when you decide to hold hands and sit shoulder to shoulder when it seems like the sky is falling. Family gets made when the world becomes strange and disorienting, and the only face you recognize is his. Family gets made when the future obscure itself like a solar eclipse, and in the intervening darkness, you decide that no matter what happens in the night, you'll face it as one." p29

Wonderful book. I think it would be great for all women but mostly young women, especially new moms as that's where the author was at when she wrote it. Beautifully written. Short story/vignette format about thought provoking pieces of her own life.

This book is an AMAZING book. Shauna keeps you in tact on what you want to read and tells stories about her life that relate to you. I love love love this book and it has been passed around with our church ladies and we actually get the chance to meet her this fall for lunch (08) and is speaking at our church.
