Pause, reflect, and appreciate the sacred ordinary within your family.
Ordinary Blessings for Parents is a spiritual high-five for parents in every stage of raising kids. Gifted poet, empathetic pastor, and mom of three Meta Herrick Carlson names the moments we take for granted or that makes us second-guess ourselves. Her blessings call out the simple struggles that remind us we are in good company and that we are loved in the midst of loving children. The book includes blessings for washing bottles, for belly laughs, for the death of a beloved adult, and for the legacy we want to pass on. If you're a parent or caregive, you are bound to find a word you didn't know you needed and to pass a blessing or two on in solidarity with other families in your life.
