Book description
A book to bring laughter, consolation and solid advice for every mum
who's found herself wandering blearily round her kitchen in a
milk-stained dressing, too exhausted by yet another sleepless night to
remember what day of the week it is, or been left wondering where it all
went wrong as her teenager screams, 'I hate you!' and storms out of the
room.
Coleen has been a stay-at-home mum and a working mum, steered her
children through toddler tantrums and sibling rivalry, helped with their
homework and cheered them on at football, handled their heartbreak at
her divorce and the transition to living with a stepfather. She knows
how rewarding motherhood is, and how hard. In this book she shares some
of her funniest and happiest moments as a mother, as well as the
frustrations and tough times every parent faces. She also gives lots of
tried and tested, practical advice for each stage of your child's
development as well as tips on dealing with issues like bullying,
bereavement and divorce. Above all, she reassures us that real mums
aren't always perfect, and no one gets it right all the time. Loving
your kids and doing your best is what matters. Coleen Nolan is an
