Book Review of The Gift of an Ordinary Day: A Mother's Memoir

The Gift of an Ordinary Day: A Mother's Memoir
reviewed on


I really liked this book a lot. It arrived at a time when my youngest child had just moved out of his childhood home and I found myself struggling with so many emotions and wondering how I was ever going to say goodbye to a piece of my heart. I don't know if all mother's feel this way about moving on with the next chapter of their lives, but for me, this has been quite a challenge and makes me realize I have a lot to learn about letting go. If you are in a situation such as this with children growing up way too fast, I think you will enjoy reading this book as much as I have.
