Want a Book for Mom for Mother’s Day?
Here’s a great book about motherhood that tells it like it is!
Confessions of A Scary Mommy is a book by Jill Smokler that talks about motherhood like it really is. All the down-and-dirty and absolute joys of motherhood. This is a perfect book to get a mom for Mother’s Day. It’s a book that will have her laughing and feeling better about motherhood within minutes of starting the book.
Jill Smokler is a mom blogger who started blogging about her family for her family to keep them in touch with what was going on in their lives. Then Jill began to meet other mom bloggers online and found that other people were following her (not just relatives)! She started interacting with other moms and she created a “confessionals” section where moms could post their intimate thoughts of motherhood or anything they wanted on her blog without having to put their names on it. Jill received the best and most hilarious honest posts. It’s what prompted her to write the book Confessions of A Scary Mommy. In fact, each chapter is inspired from ideas other moms posted and these confessional postings are written at the beginning of each chapter.
From taking home a newborn, to choosing names, to dealing with toddlers and kids, this book breaks down the good, the bad, and the ugly.
My Favorite Parts of the Book:
1. Nice short chapters (can read quickly)
2. It’s a great pick-up and put-down book
3. It’s real and from the heart, and it tells it like it is
4. I could relate to so many situations being a mom of two young kids myself
5. I was laughing the entire time! A mom needs that at night! Slight language warning though. Not suitable for kids.

It involved baby poo, my hubby, and his nice outfit. =)
Having a junk food picnic in the living room and the kids cried because they wanted real food.
In the bathroom…mommy good job going poop. That’s all I can remember at the moment.
During a diaper change, our son decided to start peeing and I jumped back (reflex) while it went all over the changing table and him! I blame it on being a new mom at the time HAHA
been a while lol…
There’s so many
My son called binoculars “knockers” for the longest time when he was 3…and we didn’t correct him because we loved it way too much. 😉 LOL
When My Son Called Spaghetti (Pasketti ) cause he couldnt say spaghetti lmao.
I for one would absolutely love this book- looks hilarious! I think for my mom, however, I will stick with a book I picked up for her already, “SportsFan Chronicles” by Kurt Weichert.

Oh so many, my youngest used to call birds “boobies” for the longest time.. we’d ofen here “boobies everywhere” LOL. My oldest pulling her dress up in the middle of her kindergarten concert to fix her tights.. she was front, middle center!
So may but my son sneezing a raisin is definately high in my list. I don’t even remember him eating raisins then one day he sneezed one out!
When my daughter uses words without knowing what they mean it can be interesting. I can’t remember any of the top of my head, but it is always interesting.
I think everyday is a story thank you this book looks great !
I would say when my son then one had a major blow out of his diaper at my hubby’s bosses house big beautiful house it was everywhere!

My youngest son and I had a habit of staying up late, lying together and talking. One night, we were talking about God and Heaven, etc., and how God would ‘take us home’, when it was our time. Next morning, very early, someone was knocking on the door quite loudly. My son ran to me, ‘Mama, it’s God, here to take us home’!!! lol Still makes me smile to think about it 🙂
I have 5 kids…there’s so many it’s hard to think of just one right now…they make me laugh so many times each day 🙂
Rebecca Xavier: My daughter is almost 7 months old. She does so many cute and funny things. My favorite is when she said “Dada” and reached out for me.
waking up to find my son then 3 hiding in the fireplace covered in soot… he looked like he had the crap beat out of him and the look on his face was wonderous!!!

It was funny to me but to my hubby….not so much. Our daughter was just a couple weeks old and he was changing her diaper on our bed and she wasn’t quite finished. Projectile poopy right in the face! lol. Glad it wasn’t me!
its been a long while.
I often tell my son to put his pants on before leaving the house…when I mean shoes (not pants)…lol The pants are always on…yet that is what I say every time. At least my 5 year old thinks that I am humorous.
Thanks for the opportunity!
I showed up to the school Mother’s Day concert a little late, but was happy to find a parking spot. Got inside, and they told me I was one week early.
