Demonstrating Digital Architecture Book

Fabulous book, just fabulous.

Mother, non-mother, thinking about motherhood, not thinking about motherhood; this is a great book.

My copy was sadly lost to time and two moves, but my husband finally broke down and bought me a used copy online after forcing him to stop at every clearance book bin put on creation.

The first time I read it I was 22, single, and babies weren't even a blip on my radar. The blip still hasn't appeared after five years and a wedding, but I still feel like I can identify with Betsy.

This book is on my list of all-time favorites, possibly even in the top five, simply because she's so brutally honest about her pregnancy, the baby, and the impact an infant has had on her life.

Betsy charges the darling girl for all baby-incurred expenses (maternity clothing, bottles, diapers, Weight Watchers meetings, etc.) to both track the baby's life and to keep her grasp over who rules the roost.

A baby can demand a feeding at three a.m., but Mom can invoice for the rocking chair said screaming infant required to sleep...
