As a stay at home mom and mother to 3 children aged 4 and under, mommy time is scarce in our household. From the time children awaken in the morning (which is early) until they go to sleep at night, my world primarily revolves around them, their needs and taking care of our home. If I'm not careful, this can easily lead to the neglect of my most important relationship: God. That's where this devotional comes in.
Mommy Time, by Sarah Arthur is a simple, delightful read that focus the reader on Heavenly things all while recalling the day to day life of a new (or even repeat) mom. The topics are comforting for moms to read, a great reminder of where our purpose in mothering comes from. Mommy Time also takes into consideration the time constraints that every mom feels. Its simplicity makes it easy to read and digest in a brief sitting, which is often all a new mother has to give.
Over all I enjoyed this devotional. It was a great start to my day or break midday, whichever came first. It was easy to read, and offered solace for the soul as I went about my duties as a wife and mom. I recommend it for all moms, especially new mothers.
