You have to really appreciate the sarcasm, and have a certain perspective on parenting, I guess. I think it’s hilarious! I plan to pass it on to my friends – but maybe I will be selective about which ones I think will most enjoy it.

Another great suggestion – adding it to my list, it does sound amazing. I am interested in learning more about Buddhism. Thanks Jen!

I love book suggestions. I am shuffling between 3 books right now, but the one that I am loving the most is called Buddhism for Mothers by Sarah Napthali. Have you read it? If not, I think you would love it. I appreciate the simplicity that the author manages to bring to her writing connecting the act of mothering and all that it implies with the principles of Buddhism.

I hope you win your bet. Stephen Cope’s books are wonderful as are his workshops he offers at Kripalu Center.

Here is another wonderful book in the spirit of yoga to add to your pile.
