At such a time as this\u2026what are you reading?\u00a0 Instagram posts?\u00a0 Tik Tok posts?\u00a0 Facebook?\u00a0 Or something else\u2026a great motivational read?\u00a0 Mystery?\u00a0 Devotional?\u00a0 Biography?\u00a0 What are you reading that is serving you in a positive way?\u00a0 Teaching you something?\u00a0 Taking you away from this chaos and into a make-believe place?\u00a0 Pushing you to be your best self? \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is Mama\u2019s Minute\u2026and today we are have a brief chat about what mamas are reading in 2021.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as we talked all about encouraging our children to read on Tuesday\u2019s episode\u2026we also need to think about what we are feeding our brain and heart! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I asked mamas in our new Facebook Group, The Whole Mamas, to share the titles of books they are reading right now\u2026and oh my\u2026did they provide!!  Suggestions ranged from everything from The Librarian of Auschwitz <\/em>to Greenlights<\/em> by Matthew McConaughey to Oh Crap! Potty Training: Everything Modern Parents Need to Know to Do It Once and Do It Right <\/em>by Jamie Glowacki to Untamed <\/em>by Glennon  Doyle\u2026to the Bible.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you read a page a day, you are doing it!  Think of how many books you can read this year and stick to it!  Think of how many people you will meet, places you will visit, and stories you will experience\u2026just by picking up a book!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, start a new one this weekend!\u00a0 Grab a new book, a mug of something delicious, and give yourself even five minutes to get reading!\u00a0 Feel free to message me what you started and don\u2019t forget to join our FB group\u2026The Whole Mamas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
