Synopsis
Television crime reporter and full-time mother tells it like it is in this raw, irreverent collection of essays—just what mothers are asking for when they curl up with a book at night after a seventeen-hour day. Amanda Lamb, a regular contributor to Dot-moms.com, lauded by the New York Times and Time magazine, writes about the reality of raising children, working, and keeping a family together, sharing some wickedly funny moments along the way. “Parents will never get enough sleep until they're dead. Osama Bin Laden would come out of hiding if he could listen to your baby wail all night.”
