After nearly a decade that column has transformed into a real and humorous commentary on the good, bad and sometimes ugly side of marriage and life with kids. This book is a compilation of some of the author's best and award-winning columns from the Our Town magazine with bonus material from her preschool and surrogacy blogs. It's a light and easy read perfectly written with convenient breaks for those who aren't even used to going to the bathroom in private. Get ready to laugh, cry and hug your kids through this Erma Bombeck-esque account of the reality of family life.
