Katie had no worries. But, unexpectedly near the end of her kindergarten school year, her mother suffered a life-altering stroke. Katie’s mom transitioned from a happy-go-lucky mom to one who lost her ability to walk and talk. For the first time in her life, Katie was really scared and worried what was going to happen to her mother. Although Katie lost her old mom, she gained a new mom who turned out to be very different. Life was altered from what it once was, but it wasn’t so bad because through it all, Katie was lucky to have her mom. A book for children, Mom Had a Stroke explores how one little girl felt as she learned to accept and adjust to a new mom with physical challenges, and how, over time, they began to experience happiness as a family again.

Book Description
Written by a grief counselor and educator, this book is for those who have loved and lost their mother. Losing a mother is a difficult transition in life. No matter the status of the relationship, grieving the loss is a process--one that sometimes begins before the physical loss has occurred. Drawing on his own experience of loss, as well as on the experiences of others, Harold Ivan Smith guides readers through their grief, from the process of dying through the acts of remembering and honoring a mother after her death. This book provides a way forward. By shifting the grief process from something to rush through, Smith encourages readers to embrace their grief as a natural response to loss and to give themselves time to work through the sadness, pain, memories, and reality of living without their mom. All of us will experience the loss of our mother at some point. A mother's last breath inevitably changes us. Through wise counsel, Smith speaks gently to people who have gone through this loss and helps those yet to face it. This edition includes a new foreword from the author.

Book Description
Parenting Help from Down in the Trenches-a truly powerful and extraordinary compilation of parenting gems derived from very ordinary and everyday people just like yourselves who are involved in the most critical task given to every generation: to produce offspring who acknowledge, love, and obey God; who honor and respect their parents; who learn personal responsibility and accountability through choices and consequences; and who develop a love for the country that is reflected in their adherence to its laws and regulations. As daunting a task as this is, it is one that the parents in this project accomplished as they parented their own children and are seeing it also in the lives of their grandchildren. I wanted to be the literal fly on the wall in their homes! Being their child's teacher, their young athlete's coach, or their son's or daughter's youth minister, I wanted to know what they did that must have been so earthshakingly different that produced such exemplary children. Herein lies the value of this work. It is not a plan, it is not a program, and neither is it a treatise taken from child psychology. It is simply a lot of loving Christian parents making application of God's principles along with a lot of logical common sense. What you read in this book works! The numbers do not lie! The statistical data tells the story of parenting success. It comes down to Philippians 1:9 "What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things and the God of peace will be with you." You will learn and see in these ordinary families extraordinary principles! Practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
