Woo-to-the-Hoo! It is finally here and this will be the absolute longest day of work in my life until I can get home, reserve my spot on the sofa, grab a glass of wine and my Kindle and some Kleenex, and dive in to some serious mom stories.
The Mom Quilt is a book compilation of different experiences of motherhood...different experiences, but hopefully some so similar that your heart will be moved to laugh, cry, frown, and smile at the ladies holding up a mirror to your soul. Becky Mansfield, Paula Rollo, and Jodi Durr put out a request for stories, and I have a feeling they have received so much more!
100% of the profits from this E-Book will go to www.MercyHouseKenya.org (thank you Kristen Welch!) to provide a water well for the Women of Mercy House. It is E-Book only at this time in order to maximize our efforts and surpass the $40,000 goal set to build the well.
Our submissions were 1500 to 2000 words and around 60 were published in the E-Book. Some of you know that my own mother was a young mother of 17 when she had me and I chose to write what a foundation for my future that experience was for me (Check out Page 128). It is a tall order to make your mom proud, and your daughter, and slowly learning...myself.
My hope is not only that you will purchase the E-Book, but that you consider an extra donation to Mercy House, shop Mercy House, pray for Mercy House, and of course encourage others to do all of the above as well!
I have shared what a chicken I was about this submission and the call from God to obey. I am humbled and honored to be a part of this project. May you be blessed by the blessing you are giving of clean water to women in Kenya.
