When you are fast asleep, the angel in your family is hard at work to make your home a joyful and happy place.

Mothers describe falling in love with their babies and then, more slowly, learning to understand them. Children flourish when their mothers love and understand them. For over 20 years, Naomi Stadlen has listened to hundreds of mothers talking at her weekly discussion groups. In 'How Mothers Love' she offers unique insights into how mothers and babies learn to communicate intimately with one another. When adults relate to one another, they are building on the foundations usually laid down by their mothers. 'How Mothers Love' is a study of how mothers start to build those foundations and covers areas such as: how to create emotional 'space' for your unborn child; how to maintain a close relationship with two or more children; the transformation into motherhood and your role as a mother in wider society. By sharing the experiences of other mothers, Naomi Stadlen offers reassurance and support to all new parents as they navigate the highs and lows of the early years with their babies.

A mother's love is like the air; you may not see it, but it's there. A mother's love is universal; and yet the way each species shows its love is unique. In a cloud, I'll build a nest. For you, I want the very best. My love is fierce and very bright. It makes the world feel safe and right. Mother's Love is a lyrical celebration of the unconditional bond every mother has with her child. The book is written from the point of view of ten different animal moms, ranging from elephants to eagles and depicts the various sides of motherhood, including joy, resilience, and sacrifice.

This story beautifully captures the timeless love shared between a big person and a little person.

Although there are several studies dedicated to the lives of Francis and Clare of Assisi, Gilberto Cavazos-González's Greater Than a Mother's Love is the first to investigate their spirituality in the context of family relationships. He delves into the writings of Francis and Clare and illustrates how both used observations of their various human relationships to understand their experiences with God. Accompanying this study is an exhaustive bibliography and several appendices that enhance this unique treatment of these two beloved and admired religious figures.

This book is to encourage families who may have had the experience of having children in their homes who were broken and discouraged and full of anger and felt as if they could never find love in this life time. This is for children who came from single parent homes or sometimes both parents in the home who had their intention elsewhere, who showed no love to them that they felt left out, outraged, angry, bitter, worthless, as if they were alone. Entering into a new home not knowing what to expect would have their guards up from what they had already experienced in there short lives. This book is to encourage those who may have gone through hardships in their own personal lives, to let you know that there is a way out.
