In three parts, titled "Life," "The Kids," and "Mom's Madness," Nightingale tells stores that run the gamut from the day to day high drama of trying to do too much in too little time, and taking vacations with three hight energy children, to trying to find a life beyond motherhood
What a delightful book! What a wonderful book! Ms. Nightingale never strikes a false note as she describes the challenges of "having it all"-- marriage, children and career. There were passages in this book that had me roaring with laughter. I was particularly struck by her self disclosures her own foibles and that of her children. This is a funny book but the deepest impression left on the re. "Great book! Very funny" according to M. Brown. I started this book while waiting for a plane to take off and I simply could not put it down. I had high expectations from the start, (I actually brought three copies to give to my friends), and I was NOT dissappointed. Marjorie finds an absolutely hysterical voice with which to describe the insanity of her life (and mine). I especially enjoyed the fact that each chapte. Andrea E. Young said Finally, A Mother Who Speaks!. Majorie Nightingale is a mom "extraordinare". When it comes to raising her Finally, A Mother Who Speaks! Majorie Nightingale is a mom "extraordinare". When it comes to raising her 3 kids, its not that she does everything right, but she teaches mothers and mom's to be that there is both learning and secret joys to raising their child(ren).This book is so witty, and is filled with small nuggets of wisdom, I couldn't put it down, and found myself laughing hyserically at some . kids, its not that she does everything right, but she teaches mothers and mom's to be that there is both learning and secret joys to raising their child(ren).This book is so witty, and is filled with small nuggets of wisdom, I couldn't put it down, and found myself laughing hyserically at some
