Bestselling author Debra White Smith (more than 1 million books in print) says that no matter how organized a mom is, there are times when kids seem to turn into wild animals. Whether swinging from the chandelier or leaving cookie crumbs trails through the living room, children clamor for attention. All moms will readily relate to these short stories that highlight Christian principles found in comical situations that include...

• wrestling a kitty to put on a Band Aid
• serving French fry flambé
• negotiating tight squeezes in the new “used” van
• shaving a hamster
• encountering the “perfect” mom

Each story has an upbeat conclusion along with a practical survival tip.
