What happens when a perfectly content, married woman adds children to her orderly world? Chaos and self-doubt reign. The myth of Motherhood and the reality of it are two very different things. Author Kristen Thomas Easley makes it her mission to understand how far apart the two are in her book, Supermom Breaks a Nail.
This satirical look at raising children today never tells the reader what to do nor what to think, only occasionally to admit that motherhood is not all it’s cracked up to be. Supermom Breaks a Nail is a humorous account of one modern mother trying to navigate her way through the avalanche of child-rearing advice as best she can. As she faces mother-in-laws, mothers’ groups, seemingly perfect other mothers, she strives for a balance between the standards placed upon her and the simple joy she finds in her not-so-perfect family.
“Sometimes motherhood is more about trusting one’s own instincts than subscribing to the actions of others – and always have a bottle of wine at the ready,” says the author.
