You might find it strange that I would have picked this book up because I do not have any adult children. I decided to read it for two reasons.  1. What people say is true. It goes so fast. My kids will be adults in the blink of an eye. Why not go ahead and prepare my heart and head to help them fly on their own and support them as best as I can? 2.

It's a great way to start the day for young women.  This isn't something I would usually be interested
