Mom Connection: Creating Vibrant Relationships in the Midst of Motherhood

by Tracey Bianchi

Parenting young children is an all-consuming task that can make mums feel isolated, disconnected, and ineffective beyond the walls of their own home. They want to have a part in the bigger scheme of things, to have real friends, and to make the world their children will inherit a better place. In this witty, encouraging book, Tracey Bianchi guides mums on a journey toward celebrating and discovering the underlying rhythm of their lives and how that rhythm pulls them into vibrant relationships. Through stories of her own life as a mum and the experiences of others, she shows mums how to gracefully engage the people who cross their paths rather than viewing others as tasks on a list. She also offers a way to find balance in this busy exercise called motherhood.

Just considering how long it too me to get through this book and write my review attributes to the fact that I can definitely find myself as a kindred spirit to the author and quoted mamas in this book. Even as I type this I have my newly nine month old swatting at the keyboard and moving the mouse, my almost three year old sits behind us watching her newest preschooler entertainment on DVD and singing along to all the theme songs. I love my life, but I would love to find a connection in our new home! As a matter of fact in an effort to meet new mamas in the surrounding area I started a Facebook Group (there are 24 members, but nobody is really active there *sigh*).

This book definitely relays that which is on my own heart. Filled with “mom-tested tips” in each chapter. Actually reading this book is a bit bizarre because I find all sorts of topics that I have thought about in passing to be discussed in full paragraphs. It is a part get-out-of-my-head and part where-is-a-mama-like-that?! Go through this book as a straight read (when you find the moments) or even do a chapter at a time and end them with the questions and prayer and journal prompts. There are many ways to get into this little book with a big heart.
