Good Mother, Welcome ~ Book Raffle

Posted on: April 13th, 2012 by ingrid 8 Comments

It was such a delightful surprise to have Goddess Leonie Dawson select my Good Mother, Welcome book as  #2 for her” list of top ten books I think every mama should read.

She said, ”

Ingrid sent this to me when Ostara was still a wee babe.

It was another one I sobbed over, creased up, and clutched to my heart.

It’s a love letter from the world to mothers.

Tremendously reassuring, loving, kind and soft.

Just what we need.

I can see why this book gets bought in the dozens to be sent as gifts to new mamas. It is truly remarkable.”

I was truly delighted to read this- how lovely!  I had a small flurry of orders, and of course wanted to give a copy away too.  If you, or someone you know, would like some mothering reassurance, toss a comment in, and I may pick your number from my teacup of numbered doves on Friday the 27th.
