Customer Reviews

Helpful...Especially for "Newbie" SAHMs

First, I want to address the review of one star and a "warning" (about the God refs). I also tend to glaze over at too many references to God, as I am not overly religious. Having said that, I still buy plenty of homemaking books that have that element, and I simply skim/skip over the parts that do not interest me. No need to slam a book without reading it first. You know, "don't judge a book by its cover" and all, LOL. Unless of course, you are an easily offended kind of person (which I am not). ; ) This book was immensely helpful to me when I was just starting out as a SAHM. Gave me tons of ideas and really inspired me to love my new "job". I still flip it open now and then to get some new ideas or to hit the "refresh" button on my week/month. ; ) Good book altogether, really made me feel like what I was doing was important (now I have the confidence to know that without a book, but it was really helpful in those first months at home).

Excellent and realistic.

I have read parts of this book, and that which I have read has been really fun. There are handy, practical suggestions for making life at home interesting for both you and your children. It is definitely written from a Christian perspective, however one that many denominations would be more or less compatible with. If you are curious/positive about Christianity but don't consider yourself a formal believer, it will also probably work OK for you.

God Bless Angie Peters and "Celebrate Home!"

I met Angie at a "Stay-at-Home Mom's" Conference, and she was wonderful! She understand all the "stuff" that we at-home moms face. I believe that one of the best sections in the book deals with cutting back to one income. She gives some very practical advice on how to do this. I have just had my second child, and I just finished reading the book again! I would recommend this book to anyone who is even considering staying home with their kids!

Wonderful book for SAHM's

If you need some ideas for those rainy days, or even the sunny ones, this book will help moms and dads with their kids.

The most realistic book written for Christian at-home Moms

Angie Peters gets it! She has a very unique ability to put into words all of an at-home Mom's experiences and feelings. AND, make us feel OK about those feelings with plenty of information on resources to help. I recommend this book very highly, especially to those mothers-to-be who never stayed at home and are planning to.
