A Must-Read Coming in August

My mother walks where few women dare to tread. She raised four boys- stitches, wrestling matches, tree climbing- and lived to tell about it (and, remarkably, so did we). She held our feet to the fire with our homework, took us on trips to the library and sat in the stands for our football, wrestling, basketball, swimming and track competitions. Now she's written a book, to be released in August, about the whole, wild experience. You're going to want to check this out.


From the publisher:
Boy #1 is a blessing. Boy #2 is a joy. But what happens with boy #3? And what if there is a #4? Or more? Suddenly, Mom is outnumbered. Throw Dad into the mix, and you have enough testosterone to chase Mom out the front door and keep her on the run from dawn to dusk.

My mom is not only a great mom, but an excellent writer, so this will definitely be a great read. Keep an eye open in bookstores for I'm Outnumbered in August, and read more about my mom, her book and raising boys at www.outnumberedmom.com.


On a personal note, I couldn't be more proud of my mom for writing this book. It's always been her dream to write, and now that she's got the creative juices flowing, I can't wait to see what else is coming in the future. Congrats mom!
