 Staying Sane Through Motherhood
Thursday, February 16th at 6:30 Registration begins February 1st Held in the Community Room Being a mom is the most rewarding job on the planet. But it's also the most exhausting, anger inducing, demanding, and frustrating job there is. Sometimes you feel like you are failing. Sometimes you want to throw in the towel. You are not the only parent being driven to the brink of insanity by your children! While the challenges of motherhood can sometimes (or often) be overwhelming, they are manageable. In this humorous, emotional, and inspirational presentation, Susie Johnson, mother, wife, blogger, and coach, will share how she is (imperfectly) managing to raise seven children while still maintaining her health, sanity, and sight of the woman she was before becoming a mother.

The first book club of the year will be held on Wednesday, February 15th at 4:00pm and the book title is Rember Me Like This by Bret Anthony Johnston. A gripping novel with the pace of a thriller but the nuanced characterization and deep empathy of some of the literary canon’s most beloved novels, Remember Me Like This introduces Bret Anthony Johnston as one of the most gifted storytellers writing today. With his sophisticated and emotionally taut plot and his shimmering prose, Johnston reveals that only in caring for one another can we save ourselves. Please visit the library after January 30th to pick up a copy of the book! 2017 Classic Book Club dates and the remainder of the regular club titles and dates will be posted shortly.
