S.a.h.m.

But now that i have a bit of experience under my belt, I am slowly realizing how the little ones manipulate their world...even at 5yrs old!

That is sooo truthful! I've been reading a book that covers a bit of separation anxiety with two year olds, and the behavior that is labeled "terrible twos". So interesting to learn how the human psyche works and how people learn to detach from their parents.

I think we often have a lot to learn from our kids!

Happy Weekend to all the SAHMs!

Happy parenthood!

Just thought it should be said (heeeheee).

 

[marezee]

faith!

we should do an on-line book club...is there such a thing?

 

[faithmom]

I like the idea, but I have 3 books floating around right now! LOL!

Maybe we could mini-club a book here. Did you have something in mind?

Any good ones out there for SAHM's....or should it just be fun to give our brains a vacation?

 

[marezee]

well...i didn't have any one particular book in mind.
maybe we all could agree on one together.

It was just a thought anyway...and not a very good one i suppose...with everyone busy busy busy!

One of the books a friend of mine and I may do in a few months is "Brushstroke Legacy" by Lauraine Snelling. She writes faith-based fiction, usually about women in past times who make hard decisions through God. If you can find it, or come accross it, it will be a while before we start. I'd be happy to mini-club it with you or anyone else on this thread who wants to.

I'm open to other books too. (seriously I read almost everything).

I'm all for a SAHM book club! I will read ANYTHING. Let me know! I'm in.

 

[faithmom]

Well....that is three of us. Let's see who else wants in, then take a bit of time to find out what books we all might have access to. We can PM if we need to if other subjects come up in the mean time.

 

[marezee]

cool!

 

[marezee]

so has anyone any ideas for a book for our book club??
Faithmom suggested "Brushstroke Legacy" by Lorraine Snelling.

Any other suggestions or requests??

I guess we are going to try .....when everyone who wants in agrees on a title. I never did a book club b4, so I'm not sure what to do....except read the book!! HAHAHAHA!

Hehehe....I think that is one of the Great Unknown's of this thread!

I realized as I was looking at the book ideas people have had (and are there some on the Older-Mother-club-house thread too going on?) that we all have different access to different types of books stores and materials.

I don't even know if Lauraine Snelling is being sold outside of the upper mid-west.

We'll have to see what happens.

I was just clearing out a cubby of books this morning (I have a lot of books around) to bring past-read ones to a donation place. I came across a Sister Chick book (a series by Robin Jones Gunn) I read. It's "Sister Chicks say Ooh La La!" and I read the "Down Under" one a couple of years ago. I don't think I've read any of the other ones in the set....there is supposed to be a few.

It is light, easy to read, Christian girly-fiction.

The inside cover of the one I have says there is also,

"Sisterchicks Do the Hula"
"Sisterchicks on the Loose"
"Sisterchicks in Sombreros"

They are sold pretty much nationally in both Christian book stores, and main Chain stores (Barnes and Noble, Boarders, etc.)....and I have seen a few at libraries too.

Just thought I'd throw that one out there too, in case there are some titles that might be interresting to anyone here. (Again, I read everything, so no pressure here).
