A Mother's Book of Secrets

My completely amazing, I have no idea how they do it, Mother-in-law, Linda, and Sister-in-law, Shawni, are incredible mothers. Incredible. I mean almost perfect. Linda likes to refer to herself as a "fellow struggler" and I guess in a way we all are but she "struggles" with grace. So does Shawni. That said, they recently finished writing this very inspiring, very real, book together. 

I highly recommend it. A perfect gift for yourself or someone for Mother's Day. Shawni is also a fantastic photographer and shares several pictures in the book that capture moments that tell stories in themselves. Here is a fun clip from when they were on Good things Utah.

A note from Linda:

Shawni’s youngest daughter, two-year-old Lucy pictured on the cover of this book was recently diagnosed with a rare genetic syndrome called Bardet-Biedl.  This means that, among other things Lucy will likely be legally blind sometime between her 9th and 15th year. This heartbreaking news has prompted us to donate a portion of the proceeds for this book to the Foundation Fighting Blindness, a National Organization for Rare Disorders, a wonderful organization doing research to discover ways to intervene.  

Passing this message on to other mothers (sisters, neighbors, married daughters or daughter-in-laws) will not only help us give more to this cause but with the power of the Internet, may also help us to get connected with moms dealing with similar issues.  By clicking onhttp://deseretbook.com/store/product/5014296 you will go directly to the book  where you can order at a 10% discount without having to go to the store.   

Life is so fragile. How we appreciate your support!
