I really, really need to work on patience. I have such a hard time when everything’s happening at once. And I feel like every mom on earth manages to be patient and purposeful except me. I sit there yelling at them to both be quiet and wait a minute and I know it’s not even their fault and that yelling is the wrong choice, but I still do it. Of course that’s in my weak moments…. But I need to find better ways to deal with those weaknesses than going on emotion alone. That is why I need to read more about this.
My greatest goal is to raise godly children who seek the Lord.

Oh, this book is on my list to read! It would be so nice to read before my second little one arrives on April. My daughter will be 19 months right around the time he/she is born, so some organization and motivation are just what I need! :)

This book sounds amazing! I have twin one-year-olds and there are too many days where I feel like I’m coasting just to survive. I want to make my days mean more.

I strive to be intentional in all areas of my life and am interested in ideas to include motherhood in that as well.
I am a working Mom, but so many of the things I have heard about this book can be applied to my life as well. Thank you for this chance and for all the great and solid advice :)

Entry 1: I would love to read this book to help me complete one of my goals of motherhood. I have a plaque in my kitchen that says “May the lilt of Irish laughter fill your home.” Without intentional motherhood, chaos ensues. With chaos, there is no laughter, only stress and tension. I believe that my learning more about intentional motherhood will help my children have a home filled with Irish laughter. Growing up in such a house, I know how precious that is to pass on.

I would love a copy of this book! I am a SAHM of 2 children. I have a hard time juggling my time between their needs and mine!
I have 41/2 yr. 3 yr and 4 mo. old girls. Homeschool my oldest. Would love this book as it’s a daily struggle to keep my priorities straight and get everything done!

This book should be next on my list! I really need to work on “intentionality” and being purposeful with how I use my time at home. Balancing it all is tough work!
I have four children and one on the way and I also home school. I seem to try and fail so often.
I think my biggest challenge is just perseverance. I can get excited about trying something new to be a better mommy, and I start off with a bang, but somewhere along the way I get discouraged and it all goes by the wayside. My goal: to persevere.
Thank you for this! It sounds like an excellent help!

I think Steady Days could help me get a handle on our crowded house that is in the 4th week of homeschooling grades 2, 3 & 5, and I just found our I’m pregnant. I need to find some stability in our day before it hits a whole new chaos..

I need to read this book, because the main thing I struggle with is what you describe as the message of her book: being purposeful and not just letting my days with my family happen. Thank you for the giveaway!
One thing I see as a challenge is not comparing myself to those moms who always seem to have everything together. They are clean o matics, their kids hair never moves out of place no matter how many times they jump on the trampoline, their clothes are up to date and stylish and their kids only wear children’s place or ‘higher end’ brands and never get one spot on them. Their home could be in better homes and gardens tours at any time of the day or night, they always display an appropriate attutude to their kids and always know exactly what to do in every situation, and etc. Realistically, their families have problems just like mine at some point. So this steady days book seems like it would be an encouraging read. After all, it isn’t the absence of problems that makes one happy, it is the joy that God gives deep down. It would still be cool to have motionless hair though :)

I really need to work on maintaining enthusiasm. I’m just entirely too easily overwhelmed. I would LOVE to win this book.
As a new stay-at-home mom, I am working towards being what Jamie calls, “a professional mother.” I would love to read her book and learn to make the most of the early years with my little one, so I don’t miss a thing.
