A few words from Sheelagh
Although the title of How Mom Got a Life, would indicate that this book is strictly for Moms, really, it's for all single parents, whether male or female. And while it's not my story, per se, I do know and did draw upon, my own experiences as a single mother in portraying Kate and her family. Suddenly finding oneself completely responsible for all facets of family life is daunting to say the least. Nevertheless, I wanted to show that there is a light at the end of the tunnel by making this a funny, light-hearted story in which all mothers, married or single, will not only see themselves through the super-critical eyes of their kids, but in reading of Kate's bumbling efforts to cope, will take heart and feel a little less intimidated by all those "Super Moms" out there.
TESTIMONIALS
"This book was so good I had to read the whole book in 1 sitting.
It was intesting I just had to find out how it ended. It was well written."
--Linda P.
"This is an inspiring story of "Thoughts Become Things". It is an easy read and helped me to think about some of my thoughts diferently. I am working on "thinking the good ones" (thoughts) and this book inspired me even more to do so..."
-- K. Marsh
"For those who might enjoy absorbing and learning about a new, or old, theory in the form of a novel this is the perfect one. Ms. Mawe's son, Mike Dooley, is one of my favorite lecturers and now his Mom is another. We need more novels from Ms. Mawe. I have enjoyed every one that I have had the pleasure to read. A winner."
