My Favorite Mom blog tour!


Hello and Welcome to the virtual book tour for A Mother's Heart Knows!

April 21-26...Hold onto your hats during this whirlwind tour...we'll be making stops all over the country, with a quick jet over to Australia! Fun!

Also, I'll be hosting the "My Favorite Mom" spa basket contest during the tour. In honor of Mother's Day I would love to hear your favorite story about your mother (or someone who is like a mother to you). To enter the contest go here and share your story to win one of TWO fabulously scrumptious spa baskets! I will be posting your stories (with your permission of course) on my blog. The winners will be announced on May 2.

Scroll down past this post to read the AWESOME (grab your hanky) stories being submitted!

Oh, and leave a comment on this post and you'll be entered to win a signed copy of A Mother's Heart Knows for your very own!

I read the review at Elise's blog too (A Path Made Straight) and your book sounds wonderful! My oldest daughter recently gave birth to her first son. We BOTH see motherhood in a much different light now. I was blessed to be at the birth... and let me tell you, there is nothing that can come close to watching your child give birth to her own!
