So funny; I wish I had read this before my daughter was born...perhaps I would have known a bit more about what to expect! (Or at least how to laugh at myself for expecting it!)

Shelton is hilarious. Working Mother magazine says she is "the true successor to Erma Bombeck's throne." Sorry, I cannot agree; Erma never cussed. I don't mind a little garden-variety cussing here and there, but Shelton really lets loose at times and pulls out the big ones--the offensive ones, that is. She did not end up using the F word, but frankly I don't know what stopped her; everything else was there. She really doesn't need the shock factor to be funny either. She's a riot. She's definitely been in the trenches, but she could take a lesson from Erma the Great. My rating for Shelton would have been a five if she had just cleaned up her act.
This book is awesome! It kept me laughing to the bitter end. Aside, from being funny, there are actually some good tips in here.
