Get ready for the ride of your life—a ride on the roller coaster called motherhood! Humorous and perceptive author Janene Wolsey Baadsgaard will take you on an exhilarating-exhausting, exuberant-exasperating journey through the ups and downs, twists and turns of modern mothering.

Janene covers all the well-known "eras" of family life—such as A.D. (Always-Diapers Period) and the Middle Ages (Unenlightened Period). Hilarious one moment and quietly moving the next, this book captures both the trying and the tender moments of motherhood.

Being a mother is an ongoing adventure, and so, as the author observes, "the idea is to hold on tight, take a deep breath, and enjoy the whole wild and unpredictable ride."
