"Lord, if kids are your blessing, could You please spread the blessing on a little less thick?"

Diapers, tantrums, and sibling spats have left many parents digging for the blessing buried somewhere deep in the chaos of parenting.

Certainly there are precious moments of love, fun, and wonder with children, but sometimes the strain seems overwhelming. Busy parents struggle to find quiet moments to give undivided attention to God.

While quiet moments may be rare, this collection of 31 touching reflections, reminds weary moms and dads that every day, whether frenzied or serene, is filled with demonstrations of God s blessing . . . for those who are watching. Tamara Boggs shows how children can be a window to greater understanding of the Heavenly Father. Each brief devotional centers on lessons gathered from the daily grind of life and point to this truth: When we see God s wisdom through the unique lens of a child s life, we will be reminded that children are indeed a blessing from the Lord.

This book of moments from my friend Tamara is not for mommies only. It is for anyone who longs for fresh insights from the heart of a seeker in sneakers.

Young moms will find practical help and lots of encouragement in these pages.
