Representaion In Pursuance Of Books I Am a Mother

How do we get women to stop saying, "I'm just a mother"? Or, "I used to be such and such, but now I'm just a mother"? When Jane Clayson Johnson, former network news correspondent and co-host of The Early Show attended a gathering of nearly fifty LDS couples, she was shocked to hear the women in the group describe themselves as "just a mother." She had not expected Latter-day Saint women to have the same undervalued view of motherhood as the rest of the world. Jane's fascinating personal story and unique insights will inspire women to raise their awareness and perception of this important--and often difficult--role.

Appraise Out Of Books I Am a Mother

I loved this book! It really makes you stop and think about the role of a mother and how very important it is. It's a very easy read and so uplifting not just to mothers, but for grandmothers, daughters, sisters and those who are thinking about being a mother some day. Next time someone asks what I do for a living I will answer very proudly, "I am a mother"!

I only had a few pages left but no time to read. I finally had the spare time to sit down and finish it last night. This book is full of quotes and inspiration. I just love all the reminders. I've never felt like "just" a mother because it has been such a blessing for me to have children. I've often felt inadequate but I love that this reminded me that I am doing my best and that Heavenly Father will be my partner in motherhood. I can recieve revelation for my children and try to bring them up

I got this book for my birthday before I had my fifth child (my request), and I read it after he was born. It is a beautiful, empowering book! The world tries to tell mothers that what they do isn't really that important; that true fulfillment lies in satisfying one's self, getting worldly praise, and "doing it all." Jane Clayson Johnson reminds us that the work of motherhood is the most important work we will ever do, and is a role that is eternal, unlike most of the other roles we play in this

Hello Friends. I JUST read a book entitled, I Am a Mother, by Jane Clayson Johnson. I LOVED it and recommend it to any woman. One of my favorite parts of the book follows. This is what I read, "Author, obstetrician/gynecologist, and women's health expert Christiane Northrup, M.D., says, "Our mother provides us with our first experience of nurturing. She is our first and most powerful female role model. It is from her that we learn what it is to be a woman.... (WHAT FOLLOWS IS THE PART THAT I

I didn't finish this book, the book finished me. I used to watch Jane Clayson on KSL news in Utah and didn't like her then, so maybe I'm not a good critic of her book. I thought the book could have ended a hundred pages before it did and I also thought the book should have been named "Jane Clayson Johnson's Book of Thoughts". There were way to many quotes for my liking.

I love the topic, of course. The quotes she used in the book were awesome. But that was part of the problem- the book is mostly a collection of quotes. I liked hearing a bit of her biography and how she got to what she is now. I liked hearing that her kids also throw up and make messes and all the rest. And I of course am in awe and admiration that she decided to be a stay home mom instead of a national news anchor. But there was a tiny twinge of "poor me" that I didn't like. I don't think the

After feeling the magnificence of motherhood being lost in the seemingly ceaseless laundry, cleanup, and sleepness nights, I picked up this book and was powerfully reminded why I chose to be a mother, and to stay home with my children. Johnson is unabashedly honest about her own life and motherhood experiences, refreshingly direct, and beautifully inspiring. I have rarely encountered a book this powerful, and would recommend it to any mother or mother-to-be.Two of my favorites from this book are
