Book Overview: We have permission to quote the following: 'Every child truly is a gift from God, and a new mother is changed forever by the joys and challenges of miraculously bringing a precious life into the world. In this beautiful book, motherhood is celebrated and raised to the high place it deserves. At the same time, the realities of sleepless nights, worries and struggles are addressed, and God's timeless and soothing wisdom brings comfort and reassurance. The encouraging scriptures and inspirational quotes will affirm and strengthen mothers on the exciting journey ahead of them. As a new mum myself, I adore this delightful book, and I recommend buying a copy for yourself if you are the new mother of a little one or for friends and family with babies.' -- Anna Leggett Book Editor

This thoughtfully compiled and beautifully presented book will encourage, inform, and provoke praise in the heart of new mums for the wonderful gift from God that is their young child. Motherhood changes women forever. There is no going back. Every mum will sail a sea of powerful and changing emotions: fierce love, chest-bursting pride and, sometimes, heart-breaking pain. Motherhood is wonderful, challenging and, occasionally, overwhelming. Catherine Butcher has crafted a wonderful collection of prayers, reflections and nuggets of wisdom that new mums will welcome and warmly appreciate. An ideal gift at a hugely significant moment is a woman's life. A New Mum's Special Gift is aimed at brand new mums or those with very young children. In three thoughtfully devised sections - `Thanks; `Concerns'; `Hopes, dreams and prayers' - the following are explored: gratitude, joy, wonder, love; overwhelmed, exhausted, daunted, fearful; newborn baby, growing child, looking ahead, live well. Motherhood offers fresh insights into the heart of our creator God. This special gift book will soften hearts, strengthen resolve and point new mums heavenward.
