Customer Reviews

Great gift for new moms!

I bought this for my best friend. It's a pretty, organized book that will help new moms remember their pregnancies, newborn moments and special baby moments. It's thoughtful and intelligent. My friend and I both like it.

Guide for a very important journey

I bought this book for a baby shower gift for a friend. When I received it, I was really surprised at the quality of the book. It has a ribbon bookmark, a very attractive cover, and beautiful pages with illustrations and quotes. Though it's a thought-provoking journal with plenty of room for the new mom to write about her experiences, dreams, and concerns, it also has a surprising amount of substance. Linda Ann Olson has written about motherhood and God's plan for a woman and her child in a touching way that isn't over-sentimental. What a lovely gift, and I'm thrilled to send it.

A wonderful keepsake

I love this journal and I am sure my one-year-old daughter will love it also when she is old enough to read it. It is a must have for every mother. I want her to know how important God is in her life, and how much she brings into my life. This journal lets you provide both.

A spiritual and practical gift

This Keepsake Journal is a spiritual gift to women who are expecting new life, and to all who cherish the miracle of life. I was very moved by the author's honesty, acknowledging the fears and doubts that pregnancy can present us with: "Why do I feel so bad--when our news is so good?" One of the deepest reflections in this book is found in "My Prayer for the World's Children." Here, Mrs. Olson writes beautifully about how the love that parents feel for their own children extends to all of the world's children, and unites parents in creating a better world for all. This book combines great writing and reflection--and well-chosen Scripture quotes--with an interactive quality. It provides space in which the reader can write down her own thoughts and concerns, offering an opportunity for catharsis. It also gives the reader a means to create a lasting momento. This is a gem! I recommend it highly. It is a perfect gift, and I will give it as often as I can.

A touching inspirational, book on Motherhood

What a beautiful book! I wish I had this book when I was a new mother. Linda is a talented and inspirational writer who shares her thoughts, joys and reflections on becoming a mother. It is a touching book that helps the reader appreciate the treasures we mothers are entrusted with. I highly recommend this book and plan to buy several copies and give them as gifts.
