After many months of anticipation Near Mama’s Heart was shipped out this week to the customers who pre-orderd the book. It has been well received by all and the emails keep pouring in. . . Here are what just some of the people who have bought the book have to say:

“LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I’m giving it to my kids for Mother’s Day to thank them for letting me be their Mamas!”-Carrie“Thank you so much, it’s such a neat book and brought a tear to my eye!” -Melissa

“I received the book yesterday. Thank you!! I read it with my 4 and 2 year olds (though I’d ordered it more for me, and to support you efforts!) and of course the 2 year old had to nurse immediately.” -Julie

On Tuesday, when I went to the post office to mail the pre-orders, I was feeling mixed emotions. I was happy that they were finally going to their new home, yet sad that my “babies” were leaving their nest. Althought it only took six months from start to finish to complete this project, I feel like it has been with me for a lifetime. Blood, sweat and tears went into this project. It was a wonderful journey and I am so excited to share it with the world!
